I don't even like going into grocery stores with different layouts. I have to admit the first thing I said when I saw that WAHM.com was different was "oh great, how am I going to find everything!" But sometimes I believe change is great, it just takes me a little while to adjust to some things. Nikki IP: Logged gazick WAHM.com regular posted January 22, 2005 02:25 PM             Yes, I except change very well. I love to change my outfits, shoes, where to go out and eat. But seriously, I don't take change very well. Right now, my husband's company is talking about a move right now. We have maybe 2 years where we are at, before my husband either finds another job, or we move to another state. So, I am afraid of change. I love our life we have here. Our kids are in a good school system, we've lived in the same house 17 years, our parents are very close to us. Love the church we go to. So, change isn't something that I welcome. I know that some people are forced to make changes and I just have to accept it. Nothing stays the same. Cathy ------------------ Need to advertise your biz?

If all of a sudden I could stay home more, see my DH and my friends more often - it would not stress me at all, LOL But on serious note - change means I end up in a more or less unknown territory. Which means I have to spend more time and energy on a regular basis for a while (until new becomes routine) There is always a potential of things working out great, but there is a potential of a disaster (I assume we are talking about a relatively big change, not just a hair cut or what-have-you) So I guess I approach change realistically-cautious with a "when will I ever rest" overtone... ------------------ Irina Cotton Tights for Kids [This message has been edited by irinam (edited February 13, 2005).] IP: Logged geekmom WAHM.com regular posted February 17, 2005 04:37 PM             I've lived with change for the past 15 years and I tell you, I'm ready to change living with change because it can be very stressful. Then again, I started a successful business and that was a BIG change from my previous career choice and now I'm VERY happy. So, it can be a good thing.
