Home

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.....there's no place like home. Was Dorothy right? Yes I think she was right
on the $$! I've heard people say that home is where you hang your hat, but I don't quite agree. There is a feeling I get when I'm home, which is Western KY in my case, that I have never had anywhere else. Some might say I've never given another place a chance and maybe they have a point. After all I've only stayed away for about a year at a time and usually I'm pining for "My Old Kentucky Home" after only about 3 weeks!

We arrived back in this great place almost 2 weeks ago and it is great to be back!!!!!!!!!!!! I missed the beautiful rolling hills, character filled landscapes full of old barns and trees and livestock. Believe it or not it has been nice to feel the cold air on my bare skin. Who knew that
I would miss fall and winter here. It was staying in the 80s in South Texas which was nice but I've really enjoyed the fall weather here since we arrived.

It has also been great to reconnect with my great family. As I'm typing my niece Hanna is showing me her Clifford the Big Red Dog book. She's reading great. She is a 1st grader this year.
Her brother Heath is going to pre-school twice a week for half a day, he's 3. They are growing so fast, just like my two boys.

Its even great to be around my not so chatty brother. He is a unique person who grunts more than vocalizes! He talks to me especially when I first got back which made me think he really missed me! He is over 2 depts at his plant so I think alot of it is he has work on the brain quite a bit. He is a mechanical engineer who has risen through the ranks of his company and done very well for himself. I love he, his wife Misty and those kids so much. *)

Well, I hadn't written anything in a while so I thought I would write a little. Nothing that substantive but oh well. I'm looking forward to my favorite holiday Christmas! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! Have a great week. :)
