Although it has been close to a year since my family and I moved away from San Francisco, no longer being in that great city is really sinking in right now. The reason for this is because this is going to be the first holiday season that we don’t spend in San Francisco.
Since you can probably tell that both myself and my family really love the city of San Francisco, you are probably wondering why we no longer live there. Like so many other people, I had to leave a city that I cared about as a result of my job. I’m not bitter towards my company or the new city that I am living in, but I don’t think it’s ever easy for anyone to deal with a major change like moving to a new city.
While we are definitely going to miss being in San Francisco for the holidays, we are doing our best to make our first Christmas in a new city as fun as possible. Since our new city gets a lot more winter weather than we were used to in San Francisco, it actually has been easier than I expected for all of us to get into the holiday spirit.
