thoughts....

Are you ever tired of the life you lead? Not thinking of family. I am thinking of job...  house.... town.... state.... Ever wonder if there is somewhere else you are suppose to be??? Something else you are suppose to be doing??

Hubby and I have talked about these things. Our daughter is a Senior starting August.... so we decided we have a year to decide if we want to sell the house and move. Our youngest is in 1st grade this year... so moving won't be so hard on him. (Hopefully)

Ok...  here is the thing... my Hubby want to move south. North Carolina. We vacation there almost every summer. I ... want to move west. Wyoming.  Interesting huh? How to solve this? I'm clueless. I love OBX.
But I just felt something when I was out west visiting. Yes, I have 2 sisters in Wyoming. We have no family in North Carolina.

Here is the thing... we are different. We were raised with morals and principals of another era. We are disappointed in people and how there is no community... friendships... morals... in life now a days. How everything is going so fast. People just don't appreciate anything. Everything is disposable. From items to
people. I would like a life with less stress. A simple life with more giving. I found that in Wyoming. I felt refreshed and renewed. I had hope. I felt it wasn't too late to raise our youngest... with the same values we taught the older children.

Everything was slower. People friendly. Surprising enough,,, people smiled at you. A stranger... a new person. They talked to you like they knew you forever. Like you had always been apart of their community.

Past "a stones throw away" I don't know the people in my own neighborhood!

It's so open in Wyoming. I could breathe.... I'll just have to post some pics. When I was there... it wasn't even green and lush... and I wanted to stay....
