FICTION

I finally did it, but it is so uncomfortable. It's like a dream come true. I do miss my family in Lithuania and some of my friends but not all of them. I'm not going to lie about that. I didn't tell any of my friends or family I was leaving or where I live. All I did was worked and planned. Mr. Dexter and his wife are an older couple I met years ago through mutual friends. Mr. Dexter reminds me of my dad. I wish he was still here. Mr. Dexter worked for some of the top financial institutions. He is retired now. I was blessed to retire early as well. Mr. Dexter had been advising me on some of my investments for over ten years before and after I purchased my 50 acres of land to buy my farm.

I truly believe Mr. Dexter is an angel sent by God. After so many years of trying to restore my peace, sleep, and get my nervous system back on track, I did it. I am happy, but a little lonely at times. My rest and peaceful sleep should be in a movie. It's so good now! I have all the things I hoped for, but I don't have a good man in my life. The last guy I was in contact with back home in Lithuania didn't love me the way I loved him, so I had to let go but I will always love him. People think there aren't any melanated people in Lithuania but there is. We have a very small populace, but we are there. I have my German Shepard (dream dog), and a few small online businesses, a few horses and I collect a lot of guns. I do okay for a single girl. The area I stay in has a lot of cool families that look out for me. I am so blessed. My house is nice but not really big. Since I live by myself, I didn't want a huge house. I have a few homes that I built next to my house. When I do have my people over, they will always have their own space. They will also have my version of Dolla Tree + Whole Foods but it will all be free. The very best thing about owning my land is my gigantic garden and greenhouse. Sometimes I sell my fruits and vegetables to my neighbors. We trade goods and services all the time with each other. I have my own cows, chickens and hens. Most of the folks around me have their own farms as well. It's so fresh and organic. I love it. I've gained so much weight, but I have my own gym in my basement, so I tone up.

I think I am going to invite my family and a few friends over for the first time ever. This should be interesting. I think I'm ready. I do miss them. It has been years since I've seen them. I believe that my family and friends knew I moved but they didn't have a clue where I relocated. We have always talked on the phone and kept in touch in that way, but I never gave them my location. It's time!
