So I've noticed over the last few days that this all seems really easy for me. Something that I've literally done for years to just pick up and move away from. Like proving it to myself is something that is easy. I've had next to no urges (except for a small one last night) and I've handled them all just fine.

I'm starting to think that is because I'm excited about the thought of this project and I know this is my focus right now. It's almost like the adrenaline is what is keeping me going right now. I'm very curious to see how I will be one week, two weeks, three weeks out. After the new and cool of this wears off. I imagine that is when I'll be needing this forum and community the most.

Did anyone have a similar feeling at the start?
