The Big Move

In an aside I'll say that this Big Move feels pretty right at the moment.  It has been incredibly stressful but purifying in a way.  There is some truth to the idea of No Pain No Gain.  Whenever I do something that causes some stress in my life I find that I come out the other end a changed person.  I try to limit any self-generated stress to reasonable things.  I don't swallow metal cutlery, for instance, that worry if I'll survive the stunt.  I'm talking about doing new things, trying new things, making myself uncomfortable, pushing the envelope of what I know and like.  I always say I can tell it's going to be a good vacation when I feel like throwing up a little when I get on the plane.

People are respectful when we tell them that we have ripped out some pretty deep roots to do this thing.
