I've recently been been feeling super resistant about the upcoming move from the Metro Area to Brainerd. If you live in Brainerd or have lived - you'll be saying and thinking, "Why would you want to make a mistake like that !?" Excellent GD question!... And I'll have an answer for you later because it's a long story.
Part of me always knew was going to happen... And that part is in full GD acceptance-mode while the day looms in the distance.
There is a silver lining though... The people of Brainerd are kind, shirt off your back giving, and proud of their city. They are most resilient, having grown up in -30°, snow tragedy land, bare nuts cold Central Minnesota. The North!
