Day One: News that it's not so much a fantasy


News update: the company asked her today if they moved out of state, lets say to 40 miles outside of Boise, Id, would she go with them a year from now… quick calculations, son would be 18, yeah, she would.

All 6 ft, red hair, California, vegetarian eating gal, "Yeah I would go," she thought.

She had not had much luck with finding replacement work for the job she had and while she continued to apply everywhere, no one was ringing her back.

So since she cannot think of how she would support herself or her family if the Company left town, her only thought was to go with them.

“I want to live in Ventura,” he repeated to his phone caller over the phone over and over; he was talking to his father who was making motions about his own departures. From across the room she tried not to listen, but she couldn’t help it, this house did not afford proper privacy. Life as she knew it was changing and she had better get a plan together.

So she started a journal, Idaho-Colorado she thought of it. Everyday, check out the world of the two new states that dangled in front of her and study them so she could be prepared as best as she knew how. Research was all it took to be prepared. She could do this.

At 11:06 PM in Boise, Id it was 49º and clear; in Colorado, Denver, it was 37ºand clear. It’s a start. Colorado had SW winds of 3 mph and 47% humidity, Boise, winds were N at 0 mph and 69% humidity. Oay vey, she certainly had much to learn and only one year to watch it all was to reveal itself right in front of her.
