But I was also concerned about my husband's worsening health conditions. Our kids are here, the baby's here and a number of old friends still live in the area. Talked to a friend just the other day, someone I went to Kindergarten with. We spent half the conversation talking about school friends and the other half talking about what a horror Donald Trump is. She lives in Jersey, not far from where I grew up. She's surrounded by MAGA's in her neighborhood and never, ever talks politics. Think she was delighted to have a sympathetic sounding board.
Once you reach a certain age, there's a certain comfort in having the familiar around you--old haunts, old friends and family members.
As for Tennessee? Once we moved, I never looked back. I was more than ready to say goodbye.
