sticking the landing

Sometimes we have to make hard, hard choices.

We had a most difficult family decision to make to move from SD to northern VA in the midst of a blizzard, tearing up tender, hopeful roots of about six months to get to a happier workplace. It was excruciatingly difficult psychologically and literally as we got snowed in along the way. But from that bladed beginning we landed in our current home and have been here ever since - some forty years later. Who knew?!

Often times there isn't a rainbow at the end of storms, but it is somehow gratifying to look back and note that sometimes those first shaky, terrifying steps of faith, find terra firma to land upon.
