What will the future bring?

Change happens. It can happen gradually or suddenly. Sometimes it affects things you thought would be forever. 

A friend will be moving out of province after 30 years in this community. Her job was eliminated and there isn't anything comparable available in town. ( one of the down sides of a small town) She arrange my first date with the man I eventually married. She babysat my kids and spent many Halloweens at my house handing out candy so we could take the boys out. We may have drifted apart over the years but we'd recently starting to meet regularly for coffee or breakfast. So many of our friends have moved away over the years it's been great to sit down with someone who has known you for a long time. It's going to be hard when she leaves. 

Change has also hit work. My boss has decided to retire. I'm excited for her. She be able to spend more time with her grand kids and doing other things she hasn't had time for. It also means she will not be around for the eventual move into the new library and cultural centre. So much has gone wrong with the project that I'm sure she's  happy to have it off her plate. Of course her departure means changes for the rest of us. The board meets this week to decide what they want to do.
