I doubt that I...patti - I will miss them very much. I doubt that I will find neighbors who can fill their shoes. Of course, that is what happens in life . . . if you notice, for anything you gain, it seems there is also something lost. Think of it like this: you go on a fun vacation and have THE BEST time, yet when it is time to return home, you miss the fun of the vacation and all it held, but damn, it feels good to sleep in your own bed. It's hard, but that is what makes the journey, also. And thanks, we are relieved about Margarita's progress. So much.Lyniluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742585512852240355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-1155573628595405102006-08-14T10:40:00.000-06:002006-08-14T10:40:00.000-06:00I am vastly excited about Margarita's good recover...I am vastly excited about Margarita's good recovery. <BR/>I would be so sad if I were Caroline & Laura but i'm excited for you about the move!Monogram Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00201245389134780751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-1155533567418828352006-08-13T23:32:00.000-06:002006-08-13T23:32:00.000-06:00m - thanks.

Hard, but good.<BR/><BR/>jen - You know, one of the best things about blogging is that when I move 1000 miles away, I get to take all of you with me! I'll have a few "outages" between now and then, but that's all! Yes, the memories go with me, too. It's just when I let myself get physically tired, then the emotional guard goes down, and the memories become overwhelming. I'll make it fine, just with a few hiccups!<BR/><BR/>Old - ohhhhh. then you wouldn't have liked the trips I made a few months ago . . . from KC to Seattle, Seattle thru California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Louisana, Mississippi, Alabama, and across Florida to the East Coast; after a rest, north thru FL, to Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois and across Missouri. All told, it was around 8000 miles. And I had "my 3 small ones" with me!! Believe me, they were very tired of being dragged all over the country, but probably in some ways, they were probably easier than children. My journey is taking me to New Mexico, the Albuquerque area. That is "home." For a while I will stay with my eldest son in a small town in south-central NM, a few hours away. When this house is sold, I will find my own place. It will be a relief for all 4 of us (me and the 3 wee dogs) to finally have our furniture out of storage and feeling like home again. Now you understand the title of this blog.Lyniluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742585512852240355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-1155520987399737322006-08-13T20:03:00.000-06:002006-08-13T20:03:00.000-06:00Wow that sounds like a lot of traveling.
