One of the reasons H gave for wanting to live in Alaska was b/c
he was
1) disappointed that my career wasn't going far (I was a SAHM then, and he'd been been living up away from home for 2 years)
was b/c he "thought I'd be in the senate by now." Yes, the US Senate...which I guess I was supposed to campaign for, alone, with 3 kids still at home...and then live in DC??
Presumable this was b/c on our 2nd date - decades before, I said I wanted "to change the world, probably something political."
2) and
the 2 years away from our daughters was "sub optimal" but "they'd be fine with it when they realized how much money we had saved"...
