So here I am, all moved in and living in Maryland.  If you can call this 'living.'  I don't really know anyone yet, I work til pretty late each night, so I wouldn't have free time for friends even if I knew a million people, and my ward is 45 minutes away. . . Living in Utah sure spoiled me.
I thought moving out here would prove that I'm as strong as I thought I was.  I was wrong.  When temptations are staring you in the face day in and day out, it's a lot harder to make the right choices.  So many nights I have had to force myself not to even leave the house.  Life in Utah is so much easier because everyone around you is making the right decisions. 
I know it should be easy to make the right decisions anywhere, and maybe for some people it is, but I am just not one of those people.  *sigh* 
Tests make you stronger right?  Yeah, it seems like that -- but first you have to pass them.  We'll see how this "fresh start" (move to Maryland) goes.  There are days when I can't WAIT to go back to Utah.  I call those days "every day."
