Well, after a 9 month period of ups and downs and stress and frustration, my husband has landed an amazing job in the Boston area. He starts in just over a week. Which means a move is in line for us this summer.
When delivering the info to our two high schoolers (they had an inkling this was coming), they both had their concerns and wishes for the area. Our son wants to keep pole vaulting and our daughter wants to keep riding. I told them not to worry - I wanted to keep knitting and had already googled knitting stores in the area. That at least made them laugh for the moment.
Lots to do in a little time...tears of joy, tears of sadness all around. This space might be quiet but I'll post as I can. I AM knitting - I cast on the Perry cardigan with some Cascade 220. I'm also designing another baby sweater - a boy's vest. I'll keep you posted.
In the meantime, I'll take all good thoughts (outside of Boston knitting store recommendations!).

I'm sorry you have to move. But what wonderful news that your husband found a great job! I will pray for you all!
Understand the concerns of the teens -- but this is wonderful news for your family. You'll be in my stomping grounds -- please email me if you have questions and I'll try to answer (or point you in the right direction).
Congrats on the job! Sorry you will be moving, but the Boston area is not too far and a great place! Good luck in finding a place that meets all your needs. We can compare moving notes!
Wishing your family all the best during this transition. Glad for you husband to have found a wonderful job and a vibrant area. Wishing the best to your teens as they adapt to a new school and neighborhood. I'm sure you will be blessed with many new friends in the Boston knitting community.
Yay for the new job. Good luck on the move. glad to hear your kids are rolling with the changes. Little boy vest??? so glad, not enough of those out there ;) Love the Perry cardigan...it's in queue.
Congratulations on the new job! I've only been to Boston once, but loved it. There are LOTS of yarn shops there, and some lovely knitters...
