Day 167 [Burst Bubble]

For six months we have planned, prepared and gotten excited.
Today the bubble burst.
We were ready to bail out of suburbia earlier then we thought we would with the blessing of our 15 year old son.  Today, after weeks of deciding on the place to move to we were ready to secure a new place to live in the city.  Unfortunately the harsh reality of rates that change daily, hidden fees and the desire to live in a luxury setting within a reasonable comfort zone finanacially has caused us to switch gears and stay put for now.  While my husband and I are greatly disappointed in the wait to moving on to a new chapter, we want to be sure a move is for the better and not the worse.   Our son is more then disappointed that he will not be getting the change he was hoping for.  In all honesty, I think it's more the fact that he told everyone he was moving and is fearful they will all think he's a liar. 
I feel badly he has to feel this way, but it's all a part of life.
Not everything goes the way we want all the time.
So suburbia, you are stuck with us for a few more years.
Urban/city living, you have beat us down and for now we are over your games...but we will return stronger and ready to fight!
