I am moving home to Atlanta.
(Just had to come right out and say it.)
I've talked to many of you, and if I haven't... well, I think my thinly-veiled blogs might have tipped you off. But as of today, it is official public knowledge.
I feel confident that you could never meet a person who loves New York City more than I do. But all mixed in my heart with love for this city and the people here is love for my family, love for for the South, love for the friends I left behind and love for Chick-fil-A.
Speaking of Chick-fil-A...
That's where I'll be working, in their Advertising & Campaigns group! It truly is my dream job, and I can't believe I get to work there. I feel so unbelievably blessed.
There's a lot more to say, a lot more Ebenezers to reflect upon, and certainly a lot left to do. But I'm a bit overwhelmed with a hodgepodge of emotions, so this will have to suffice for today...

I have mixed emotions, too...but I am mostly filled with excitement and anticipation as you start another chapter. I have loved walking this road with you.
it has been decided that everything you write these days needs a warning label. as in, 'warning: this will make you cry"
happy, sad, proud, excited, devestated, etc, etc...
ily!
LJ speaks the truth. We discussed it. Also, I need to start wearing waterproof mascara every day. I think my officemate might start thinking that I'm getting beat up during meetings...
... but still: YAAAAY! SEND ME NUGGIES!!!! :)

Well I, for one, am excited you're coming home! And congrats on Chick-fil-a - that's so great!!!
Jamie, I dont think I have ever left a comment but I read your blog all the time and I absolutely have loved every single post. Your love for NYC has made me fall in with the city even more. I am sad that you are leaving because I have been living vicariously through you but excited for you as well! Congrats on Chickfila!
yay for the awesome job and yay for coming back to Georgia though I know New York will miss you!
saying it on your blog makes it real!
excited!
YES, Georgia gets back a true Georgia Belle that has been on loan for too long.
i am excited to work with you and even more excited to be newly, relocated neighbors with you! :)
that's one less friend i have at home in NYC and more friend I get to have at home in the ATL. Bittersweet.
Totally losing all my movie buddies here.
i know this is bittersweet, but congrats on getting such a GREAT job!
