tomorrow morning, we are brooklyn bound. we should be in new york monday afternoon. i am so deeply involved in the physical act of moving that i have not allowed myself to deal with the emotional weight of it - leaving our friends and family - and i can't do it yet - not yet. see you next week... from new york.

p.s. jenny posted this for me and i am smitten - it has become our song this last week - the girls have been singing it and mama can't stop thinking of it's poignancy.













I totally understand that feeling, love. It's an extremely emotional and hard time.
Skype, baby, skype.
Good luck with the trip! xo

Moving is exciting, but always a little melancholy. I hope everything goes smoothy and you get settled in nicely.

I and love and You.

You realize I'm going to be sending you "oh my gosh, Jen, you HAVE to go to this show!" emails. All good music comes through there...all good everything, in fact. ;-)

I hope the move goes smoothly! It's the process of moving that sucks, but it's wonderful once you're finally settled in :)

A lot will come out over time but the truth has been out there for a long time as well but that doesn't give you what you want so this dance just goes on and on.
