I think adapting is a good thing, but you are right when you say there is also a time for putting your foot down. I don't know what else to say right now (a little tired from the truck ride) but I am thinking about you and realizing how much harder your move is than mine. Your possessions have to go in boats and planes and trains and cars all to get back to montana... love ya! and I will respond to your big email sometime soon.... very interesting blog…although maybe I am being introspective myself because I am moving 900 miles away from home and currently ALL my worldly positions (besides my car) sit in the parking lot outside the best western in kennewick, WA…. kind of humbling when your things can fit in a 16 foot truck and at the same time I feel very blessed because I have enough things TO fill a 16 foot truck.
