It shows that you are flexible when circumstances warrant it. That's something a lot of people have not mastered, or they get an attitude if things don't go exactly the way they want/expect them to. When I was younger, I decided that I would go to law school after my children were grown and on their own. I knew I would be young enough to still be able to do it. Well, when my youngest was a junior in high school, I realized that I no longer had any desire to go to law school. Like you, I had no desire to go into a lot of debt! But working as a paralegal, I realized that I'm able to do work that I (at the time) still enjoyed but without the pressure and responsibility that an attorney has. I found a different path that will fulfill me so much more, and that's where I'm headed now. Not easy when I still have my paralegal "day job" as I call it, but when you want something badly enough, you find a way to do it. Maybe not in the timeframe that you'd like, but it can still be done. You totally rock and I'm enjoying getting to know you more and more all the time! Hugs, Lori Congrats to you for going with the flow and recognizing that this might not be the right time for going to London. It shows that you are flexible when circumstances warrant it. That’s something a lot of people have not mastered, or they get an attitude if things don’t go exactly the way they want/expect them to.
