Oh Boston

I'm in Boston this week attending mediator training (which is incredibly wonderful). It's bittersweet being here. On the one hand, I love living in a big city and don't any more. On the other hand, living here was tough, really tough. 

This is part of a text message conversation between me and Kent: 

Elizabeth: I wish it had been different here in Boston for us
Kent: me too

But of course, it wasn't different. We're no longer here and probably won't ever live here again. It's taken two years but now I can see that so much of our stress was due to a specific set of neighbors and not about the city.
