I have to look into the routes to drive to get to Florida so I can have a plan on what freeways to take there. I might go and purchase a map today so I can highlight the route. Or I might even go online and look for some directions which may be even easier to follow. I have to know where I am going.

When I get to Florida I will then have to set up everything like getting all my utilities turned on (especially the phone line), getting daycare, schools, and a job. All this will have to be set up by November so I can have things ready for the kids. Getting a good job is really important because I have to save money to buy a plane ticket and pay for them to come back which will be about $500-$600 for my kids and me together.

Today I had an appointment with my therapist to talk about the incidences of what happened to me when I was attacked and injured on the job. While talking about that as I have noticed, this incident has awakened a lot of painful memories of the past which brought on a lot of anger.

I also talked to him about a recent unfortunate event that took place in October of 2006 that has also stirred up a lot of anger within me being that it was almost a repeat if not worst of the previous incidents.

I want to finally open these doors of painful memories, confront them, begin the healing process and move on. I don’t want all that extra baggage with me when I finally move to Florida. Florida is a new start for me and with it I want to have a clear mind with no grudges or anger. It’s time to be free.
