"Parting is such sweet sorrow" says Juliet to Romeo in Act two. That is bull. There is nothing sweet about parting with loved ones. It's just plain sorrow.
Our closest friends in the neighborhood, the Johnstons, moved to Canada. Darin, Kim, and family drove back to Pennsylvania after being here for 2 months (just long enough for us to get seriously attached), and cousin Marc flew off to India. All of this in one week. We're feeling completely abandoned!
Sobs and sniffles from Mary Kate, poor girl! She lost her best friend to the great white north and her cousins to the far away east. She has declared that life is NOT FAIR! I agree.
We've had so many family and friends move away over the years, you'd think we'd be used to it by now. But it's painful every time.
We just need to quit getting so attached to people. Then maybe they wouldn't leave such a hole when they leave?

I'm still traumatized about moving away from your family.
You just gave several good reasons for moving to Bountiful. We're all stable here.
Perhaps moving to Cache Valley would give you salve your feelings. Dave never wants to leave Millville!
I can't edit that last comment to get rid of "give you". Sorry!
So what is your official blog address? I just clicked on your link when you commented on mine and now here i am! I love that we can keep in better contact now. Does Valerie have a blog? Your puppy is adorable, what kind is it? Yes, I know I'm asking too many questions...sorry!
My heart hurts for you (and especially Mary Kate).
