About two months ago, my brother told me that he doesn't want me to move to Utah because he doesn't want me to be that far away from him. He wants me to move to South Dakota like Chris and I had decided on in the beginning. I told him that we wouldn't get to see each other much more if I was in SD rather than UT. And with Utah we could meet in Vegas a couple of times a year. Well....he got a hold of my husband. Now Chris wants to move to SD because he wants to be closer to his parents. Keep in mind...his mother and I do not get along...at all. So for the past month we haven't really discussed where we are moving to or our future at all.
Finally, on Sunday night I looked at him and told him that we really need to just pick a place to live because I need to start looking at hotels in those areas and all that jazz. He looked at me and said, "Let's go to Rapid." - meaning Rapid City, SD. I asked him if that was his final answer and he said yes.
So sad face, we are no longer moving to Utah. I was really looking forward to it and I was looking forward to somewhat knowing the area. Don't get me wrong, South Dakota is really pretty and I'm sure that I can make the best of it. I just know that the reason he wants to move to SD is because of his parents. I really really don't get along with Lori. She really doesn't like me and I don't want them visiting every month or us coming up to ND every month. Rapid City is only about 5 hours away from our sets of parents.
All in all, I am no longer moving to Utah and I'm sad about it.
Other than the sadness of my future move...life is pretty good. I'm the assistant manager of the Holiday Inn Express this summer and I'm having a lot of fun with the job. Nothing all that exciting is happening in my life. I'm pretty blah :)

I'm sorry to hear that hon. Have you been able to talk to him about your feelings? THanks for your prayers.
BLAH!! I am sorry to hear that you are not coming to Utah. Sad face back at ya. I really am sorry you will have to deal with his mom more...does he know how you feel about this? I mean have you spoken them out loud? I just would hate for you to feel like you have to do this because its what he wants...is there some kind of compromise??
hugs.
i'm sad to hear you aren't moving here, but the good news is that 99% of life's decisions aren't permanent! thank goodness! i think your concession to staying in SD means you at least deserve a trip out to visit us! as sad as i'm sure you are, the best place you could be is with your hubby- no matter if that's in ut, sd, or on the moon! he loves you so much! so good luck with your in-laws, but i hope being able to be with him makes it worth any frustration that may ensue! love you babe!
Aw, I'm a little bummed. But like Alana says, you can at least take a trip! :)
