A little bit of the saga so far...

I moved back to Fargo the end of August 2007 after a little over 2 years away in eastern Wisconsin. It was too soon, haven't sold the house out in WI yet, divorce won't be final until December, but also too late, the summer was a nightmare, well the last few years have been kind of a nightmare, but that's a whole other story. 9 hours away from "home" and family with 2 little kids to take care of and a job that involved working after the daycare closed. Thank God for my friends and neighbors who pitched in and helped me out when I got desperate enough to ask them. My friend Barb made me cry with gratitude when she came over and helped me paint when I was getting the house ready to sell. She brought all kinds of supplies including 2 ladders and stayed late into the night. My brother and brother in law came from Sioux Falls to help me move to Fargo, loaded the truck, drove it all the way here, unloaded it into my step-dad's house and a storage space. I've leaned on more people in the last 9 months than in the last 10 years and it's been very, very hard.
