Home Sweet Home?
So I don't know if going home was such a good thing. It was great seeing my family, reacquainting myself with cousins I hadn't seen in many, many years, seeing old pictures of my Dad and his family. It was wonderful to visit with my grandmother and hear stories about my parents meeting. It was nice to spend time with my parents and to see a couple friends. I'm grateful for that, don't get me wrong.
Part of the reason my parents offered to pay for the airfare to get me up there for the funeral was because they thought I sounded homesick. Now I just feel conflicted. I have two homes now. I feel comfortable here, my husband is here, I have a pretty decent job and his family is pretty awesome. But my family and friends are in Maine. Unless someone gets rid of MA, CT, NJ, and PA, I'll still feel split in two.
Maybe that's why I feel so restless no matter where I am? I'm continuously homesick whether I'm in ME or MD.
