So long... farewell...
It is bittersweet that I am leaving Minnesota. And rather quickly. I was offered and accepted an amazing once-in-a-lifetime job opportunity in Richmond, Virginia. So I will be packing up the car after I drop the oldest off at her first day of school and heading out. The family will be following me in a couple months when I have found some permanent housing and schools.
Unfortunately since it is all happening so soon, I won't be able to join anyone for a last coffee or meeting. I wish I could. I will be back a couple times before the end of the year as all of my family is here. So I may be able to meet up with some of you then.
Thank you all for your support throughout the last 4 years of my journey. You have all been there through thick and thin. You are all so amazing. I will still check this board to see what you are all up to, but I will be mainly posting on the Virginia board as they are also a friendly and helpful bunch.

Sorry I never got to meet you - but all the best in your new job. I'm hoping for career upticks once my surgery is successful!

I'm gonna miss seeing you & the girls stroll unannounced into coffees every now & then! And you KNOW how fond I am of Squishy.... I hope you can give her a zerbert and a quack and tell her they're from her coffee pal, Darla...

But I AM very happy for you, Leia - to find that golden opportunity I know you've been looking for? YAY YOU!!! I hope it turns out to be everything you want and more!!
PLEASE don't be a stranger!!!
