As some one who has had an identity "crunch" or two myself I have a thought or two on this topic. First of all I have a slight identity crunch (not quite a crisis) every time I move. All of a sudden the friends and creature comforts I had been used to for the last x number of years are gone. The people who knew me and loved me just as I am, are replaced by new faces who need time to get to know me. So in the first few minutes of meeting someone I get to try and sum up all the complexities of "me". When we first moved to TN I mentioned to every one that we moved to take a job with Nissan. It was a huge career change for Forrest and it affected us greatly as a family. But now that I have been here for a while I might mention it tenth down the line because it isn't as big of an issue in the fore front of my mind. Now I mention the things that are more indicative of the current "me". Some of the things I mention now are wife, mother, obsessive compulsive reader, excel happy budget maker, shoe addict, and ocassional blog junkie, just to mention a few of the things that make me tic. Sorry if you get this twice...Miahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05723136797858906341noreply@blogger.com
