I heart...


I've spent the past 2 weeks in Ks. I was so glad to be home, even if there was a ton of work to be done here. Not only was I glad to be back in my own home, I had a shocking realization.
I like it here. There are many things I am going to miss when we move.
One of the things I hate about moving every 3 years is that 2 and a half years is JUST long enough to get used to a place, get settled, plant roots...
We have been here for longer than that. This August will mark our 4th year. My roots are further in the ground than I like or care to admit.

I have spent the past 10 years wishing and dreaming of moving back to Kansas. Now that it is becoming a reality I'm not as happy about it as I thought I would be. You'd think that getting what I always wanted would trump all the other stuff. At the moment it's not.

I do love the Kansas sky...

Did you say, "Kansas?" My youngest daughter and I got caught in a flash flood (after the tornado blew through) and totaled my little green Honda.
That would have been just west of Garden City...
So glad I can say, "Toto, we're not in Kansas anymore."

I hope you get everything you want! You will miss where you are, I'm sure, but you get to stay in KS once you get there, right? No more starting over. :)

I would have said that looks like a mouse (:

I'll be anxious to read your Kansas diaries.....
