Sweet Marisa... YOU ARE JUST PRECIOUS! Reading your post I also didn't feel it was whining. Just coping and expressing your difficulty with change. WE all hate it don't we? From the start I heard a plea for "how can I possibly do this"? to the end and I am handling it surprisingly well! I guess, no, I know you just don't give yourself enough credit! You are a amazing young woman with goals, ideals and determination! I just cannot wait to meet you!
Love Dar
PS You have the right to express your feelings good or bad because most of us count on feedback to keep us in tune. YOU, my dear, are a finely tuned Stradivarius! Priceless!

Never make someone a priority who only chooses to make you an option!
