My dear friends the "K"s are seriously considering a move back to their home state. They took a few days vacation and went house shopping, found something they adore and are now eagerly awaiting a buyer for their home here. Even though I'll be in touch with them by email and phone, I will miss each one very very much. TK, with that absolutely, knock-your-socks-off smile and BK, perched on my little file cabinet bravely listening to my every gripe about my job. I am grateful to our dear Lord for crossing their paths with mine.
Now in the meantime, my dear friend Catherine who moved to Wausau, Wisconsin (I love to call it WarSar)two years ago and hated every nano-second of it, is coming back to Northern Virginia. Her husband realized that the grass isn't greener in Wisconsin and he loves the smell of our air pollution better, so he applied and was offered a great new job here. They should be moving in mid-June. I don't think she'll be as close as she was before she left (1/2 mile up the street), but they want to find something in this area so their kids can be back in the same schools they hated before they left. Of course she'll go back to work and five will get you ten in a month the commute will get her. Anything outside 2 miles from one's house is a 20 minute drive. And that gets you to the main arteries.
Life is strange. The older I get and the more I learn and I guess I wouldn't do one thing differently. Except maybe not hurt those I loved so dearly.
Work was back breaking again today but at least there's a little glow at the end of the tunnel.
I've got a new boss. :o)
God bless you all.
