I've decided.
We're moving.
We started talking about it a year ago, before A. was born. We talked about moving back to my hometown, about making a clean start with family nearby. We talked about it after the MIL moved out, and took Little Miss with her back to their hometown, 12 hours away. We put it on hold when MIL and Little Miss returned, with the former-ex-FIL and Mo's grandfather in tow.
Since summer, I've realized that my two-week-plus visit to small-town America is the only time I've been happy in a while. I am tired of going it alone. I am tired of missing my mom, and my sister, and my whole support system. I want to go home.
And so we're moving.
There are a million more things to be decided, a million more things still up in the air. But of one thing I am certain: we are listing the house in January, and I am going home this summer. For good.
It feels good to be moving forward, to be making plans again, even if I don't have the slightest clue how its all going to work out.
