Thoughts on leaving a place (Monica)

It is funny... now that I'm getting ready to leave Sacramento, I'm finding myself making lists of all the things that I need to DO before I leave. Which bike routes haven't I taken? Which hikes haven't we done? Which restaurants have I wanted to try that I still need to go to? I never did get to that 'new in town' meetup or the spanish language practice group. Of course, there will be lots of things TO DO in the new place, although they will be different. So, the pressure to DO things isn't real. Perhaps this is obvious, but I'm just realizing this now.

Of course there are people here that I will miss. Some friends that I've known forever, and others who are new but also special. And so, as we get ready to move in 2 months time, my focus will be on spending quality time with these people. Oh, and maybe some of this friend time will be at the restaurants I've yet to try.
