travel panic


21 years ago 0 8 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Today started off great. I was enjoying a day with my boyfriend of two years. I got a phone call from a prospective employer (I was laid off two months ago from a job I had for 12 years.....ouch!!) It was a positive call and I have an interview for next week, which I had been hoping for. The drawback is that it requires 2 weeks of training in New York. I live in Georgia. That's 2 weeks away from my safe place and my safe person. When I'm not panicky (sp?) about it I'm excited with the opportunity, but at my weaker times I have an attack over it and I'm scared to death.I'm also a single mom and leaving my 4 year old with her dad for 2 weeks scares me to death. I keep telling myself that it's only 2 weeks and it will better our future, but I'm still having a hard time with it. I've never been ****her north than North Carolina and have only been on an airplane twice in my life. I could use some reassurance if anyone can offer any. Thanks!
