Previously on Chronicles of an Accidental City Girl, I was living in Chicago, walking dogs part time for a living and living with my boyfriend, our dog and three cats.
As of this evening, I am boyfriendless, in Southern Illinois, temporarily living with my parents with a dog and one cat.
A lot has changed, huh?
Things hadn’t been going well with the boyfriend for that last few months but being the optimistic person that I am, I was sticking it out, thinking we would work it out. He was not so optimistic. So. Here I am. And I’m ok. And Bogart loves the country.
And ADORES my mother. The surprise for all of us (including her) is that she loves him right back. 
Right now, I’m working out my next move, in the meantime I’ll spend some time with family , work on projects, take my nephew to the beach and the pool and enjoy the quiet. I need the quiet. I need to breathe for a while.
Another thing I have to figure out is what to call myself. Not a city girl any more and I’m not sure that I’ll move back to a city, at least not for the foreseeable future. So what do I call myself? Not so citygirl? Citygirl/ Countrygirl? A Girl with her Dog? Bogart and Bacall? Any other ideas?
Thanks for listening,
?
p.s. My Chicago phone has been turned off, so if you tried to text or call me, that’s why I haven’t responded. I’ll have a new phone with a new number this week and I’ll text everyone so you’ll have it.
Country girl.. became city girl who became big city girl.. who is now country girl again….so maybe that’s it. Country Girl Again..
good to know about your phone. I have terrible luck with texting you. I would have thought you were ignoring me again. Remember when I was texting THE WRONG NUMBER?! hahahha
I’m very sad about you leaving Chicago though. I was so looking forward to us taking walks with our pups and making super cute things together. Come visit when I move!
