So we’ve made it “back home”. I’m finally no longer apart of middle america. Middle America might be right for some people but for me, I’m a southener. I love the south and want to raise my family here. Hopefully, I will be able to stay here for a while.

Upon arriving in our new town, we went and got our house key from the landlord, got our lights turned on and got to see our new house for the very first time. Although it may be a little “dated” to say the least, it is HUGE!!! We have so much space in our new house that we can’t decide on what room should be used for what. I’m even having the problem of what to do with a spare room. We have a spare room! I can’t believe that. My husband loves the new place. I do too, I just wish the appliances were a little on the newer side. My stove for example looks like something from the 1800’s….LOL. Ok, maybe not that old but definately something from the 60’s or 70’s. And wood paneling…oh my goodness. When we moved out of my grandmother’s basement, I vowed to never live in another house with wood paneling. Well, guess what? Never say never, right? I know. But the space totally makes up for the ugly wood paneling and dated appliances. Space, space, space.

On another note, if you haven’t read already. My grandmother passed away today just shortly after we entered my new city. It was as if she was waiting for us to “Get home”. She will be missed and the rest of the week will be pretty hard with unpacking and going to the funeral and stuff. I’m trying to keep myself busy to keep from bawling. We’ll see how long this lasts. I’m sure to have a major breakdown before the week is over. I don’t think it will really hit me till I get to see my mother and the rest of my family.

Anyways, since I’ve been riding in a car all day and have a whole 26 foot uhaul to unpack tomorrow, I better go get some beauty sleep. Whenever I get the internet connected at my new home is when you’ll get another update. I think. Hopefully, I’ll get to provide ya’ll some pics of the new house. So stay tuned, so you don’t miss out.
