Sometime within this next year I plan to leave Arizona. I believe today I found where I want to move to: Marietta, Ohio. I don’t know anyone there. I have no family there. I don’t have much for resources and don’t really know how I’ll manage the move. But I believe I will. This feels right, although scary. But there is much to see and do there, and from the internet (!) it looks wonderful! I have to grieve the leaving here, and that will take some time. But I am open and willing — so…….

Stop the Storm 
ps—you will have snow in Ohio!!!
Linda, Are you leaving because of Ernie? Perhaps, in time, you will get beyond him and be able to stay in your beloved desert. It’s like greiving a death–it’s good to avoid major life decisions for about a year–until emotions settle and they will settle. Don’t leave on impulse–think about it for awhile.
If it’s not Ernie and your moving for a major change of scenery, Marietta Ohio seems like a nice place–even the name is pretty!
