My next door neighbor, Mike, is moving to New Brunswick to be with the one he loves. I am very sad to see that a wonderful neighbor is moving away from my neighborhood. He has decided to rent his house and not sell it until he is ready to make that move. He was tired of commuting back and forth from Manhattan to his girlfriend's house in New Brunswick and then back to Bloomfield several times a week. It became very stressful for him. Fortunately, after interviewing several prospective tenants, he decided to rent to three young students from Montclair.
I am very pleased because my dream was to populate most of my neighborhood with Montclair people. We can car pool and in times of emergencies, such as snowstorms or floods, we can help each other. It is also fun visiting colleagues and chatting about different things. There are now seven MSU professors who live in Halcyon Park. I am really thrilled about this. Although we are all extremely busy, we do get together for holidays or to celebrate someone's birthday. We also take turns picking up newspapers and mail when one of us is away during the summer months. It is really important to look after everyone's welfare.
I am looking forward to meeting these young women in May.
