I am confused. I am sad. I am frustrated. I want to move to Colorado to be closer to my family. Easier said than done. The house that we live in is too big, too expensive. I don't feel safe here. I feel too vulnerable and exposed in this small town. I want newness, bigger, different. I want to live somewhere where there are more opportunities, more infrastructure for families, a closer college for educational pursuits. I want to live close to Jack, John, my mom and Jacque! I have great friends here, marvelous wonderful beautiful friends here. That's not it. It's just that I have the 7 year itch. We moved here August 2000. I arrived a girl with two young children. I'm a woman now, battle-tested and ready to spread my wings.

I'm all about spreading the wings! More power to you. I too felt the "itch" to move on from Port Townsend. I moved with my family 2 years ago and it has been an exciting and sometimes nerve-racked journey; but I'm proud we accepted the challenge that a big change requires.

Nobody should live a life sad and frustrated. When you feel the need for change you have to take action on it. Only you know your path.
Be strong and know that your family loves you and supports you in whatever you decide to do. You are one of a kind and so very unique.
Love,
Mom
