My Moving Journey Day 1
My husband and I live in the suburbs of a town that has a few things but not really a lot going on. About 5 years ago we started taking trips to a major city about 6 hours away and fell in love with it. We decided we wanted to move there someday but it was in Canada. We both decided we were getting to mid life not death and wanted to hang out and live our lives. We are not the type of sit in a big house and wait for our future grand kids to come visit to give meaning to our lives.

Purple Skies and The Water
Every night at midnight, the purple clouds came out to dance with the blushing sky. One special night was the point when my power swelled. The night I turned 40 the purple enveloped me and consumed my being while igniting the magic buried in my soul. I was alone, full of turmoil from divorce, empty nesting, and about a fifth of rum that I gave myself as a gift for finalizing my divorce on my 40th birthday. I felt a purpose, a sense of home inside the purple haze and I finally knew that all the waiting I’d been doing was finally answered in the most unusual way.
