Although I have been a witness to this adventure since the start, I still love every turn and twist.

You almost lost me at that first sentence b/c I absolutely loathe Billy Joel. But the brain stir and reset required to do a move that makes you reflect on the full life you’ve built and inhabited, like I did when we left my beloved NYC for FL (will never not regret it), and again, in a much smaller way, sold the house in St Pete for the Clearwater condo, is so familiar. What to pack, in both cases, for who-knows-what-life-will-bring in-between days from old place to new. The worries about aging kitties. We’d lost Sid by most recent move but Dorothy was already fragile and she didn’t make it thru the 8 mos and 4 air bnbs til the condo. The photo of the 2 qats at the balcony door is everything. We have so many of our two at balcony door and big windows in Brooklyn. And looking out to backyard in St Pete. But it’s the Bklyn ones that do me in the most. So thank you for beautiful but still so sad for me (and Keith) moments of memories. Looking forward to next.
