Again I find that I haven't written in quite awhile. I get caught up, like everyone, in the day to day dramas, routines and occasionally joys of my life. I am about to make another one of those life altering changes and move back to the Midwest. I know, I know!! I love the ocean and being near it! I swear that all my life my Dad told me how when I first saw the Pacific Ocean at age two I said, "I has to have it Daddy!" In my mind I can see that scene just as my father described it, but in reality it's probably just because I heard it so often:) True or not, I feel a real connection to the sea.
And don't even start talking about the ice and the snow or I'll get depressed and have to leave and eat a package of cookies or a half gallon of ice cream....I love it being green all year and what's a little May Gray of June Gloom compared to the 100+ temperatures of Kansas City in the Summer with 110% humidity.
OK, enough whining. I am a grown woman and can look beyond some nice weather and beaches to what really matters, family. Priorities in my life have been skewed toward work or school. I 56 years old, still active and vibrant and I want quality time with my children and grandchildren. No matter what I come up with, nothing can compel me to change my mind and stay in San Diego.
So sometime in May, if my house sells in this crazy market, I'll begin a new chapter I can add to my story. I'll be back to visit, but Kansas City here I come!
