Very rarely do my worlds collide but they did today! A lifter friend who had brought her dog into my work months ago for a GDV ( bloat) was at the turbo gym today! I was able to find out that her boy ( dog) is still doing great ! 
I won’t lie. I did brag about her when she showed up at my job to my coworkers. World Record Holder Bencher! Yes, WORLD record holder! WORLDS COLLIDE 
Its still a trip that I have my own network here in Denver. I’ve worked with a lot of people and luckily have been able to stay in touch or at least on good terms with most of them. I don’t have many bad burnt bridges.
I trip out mostly that there are people I’ve known for over a decade running around town. I moved here with my family when I was a junior in high school from California and left family and very young friendships there.
I moved around a bit while I was married, and also for a bit abroad when I was in another relationship. I never made close friends until I started working, and not any that were long term until I got into the vet field.
I mention it because my twin is flirting with moving to St. Louis again and that’s were my Mom’s home town is. She’s there now sending me picture after picture of stuff she loves about the place. They have cheaper housing , etc… I don’t want them to move!! I like it here!!! I know I can manage on my own but its rough being away from family for me and it’d be hard to be apart.
Its not that I see them all the time but having them in the state is a safety net I want to keep. I have learned I need at least one blood relative around in case shit gets real. If I were married then that would be enough too, but as a single lady you need back up who will thrown down for you! They better not move!
It bummed me out and made me feel angry over my own famiy’s rift. They won’t read this so my two older dumb sisters need to stop acting like high schoolers and appreciate what a great family they have. Its like they have had their brains washed.
