NO PLACE LIKE HOME20:55 Jul 28 2009

You know, you hear your entire life the old saying "there's no place like home". Well, I have to say I've found it to be so true, especially lately.
The ones of you that know me, know that I moved this year from Alabama to New York, what a move, right! In moving up here I thought life would all of a sudden work itself out. Like I had to put no effort forward or something, what the hell was I thinking. We've been here 7 months and within those short months, we've moved 3 times and I lost 2 of my 4 children. Again, what a move, right.
Well, I've finally come to the realization that I can't stand it up here. I'm 3 days from my middle children and my youngest misses his brother and sisters so much, that just yesterday he cried for them. So, I've made another decision in my life. I will be 35 y/o this Sunday (August 2nd) and it's time to go home or at least closer to home, to the SOUTH!!!!!
I miss my kids, I miss nice people, I miss what I know. I miss the SOUTH!!!
So, it looks like we're heading out for the South around the 29th of August and I'm so excited. I have to admit I'm afraid though. I've made sooooo many crazy decisions in my life within the last 2 years, I literally scare myself.
I can't say this move was ALL bad. The worse thing was my children not wanting to be with me, but I guess I understand now. It wasn't me, it was where we were. I'll be 5 hours from them where we're going in Louisiana, just a little drive AND if they wanna spend time with me then they can. I sure hope they do, cause I miss them soooo much. Other than that, this trip has taught me how to be stronger and how to be me again. My little girl told me on the phone the other day, that I "wasn't myself for a while", and boy was she right.
Well, guess what I'M BACK FINALLY!!!! and it's time for me to show it.
Watch out down South, Amanda's coming back!!!
