Well we have been in Modesto for about a month now. I have tried to get used to the place. It's not that bad and there is quite a big group of surrogates and IM's around so we can get together time to time. I just don't feel like this is our home. I know it takes time to get used to a new place but I don't remember it being this bad when we moved to Kansas City. I think we were far enough from family that I knew we wouldn't be able to see them and then we moved back to Fresno and we were so much closer, only an hours drive. But now we are just far enough that driving is a pain in the @$$. Six hours round trip as opposed to two.
I do know that we aren't going to be here for long but I don't know where we are going to end up. I want to be home. Wherever that may be. I want my own house that I can paint and decorate any way I want. I want a front yard that I can plant flowers in. I want a back yard that has trees and grass and maybe even a dog house. I want a place that the girls feel safe going outside to play or ride thier bikes or make friends. Is that too much to ask?
I feel like that place could have been in Fresno/Clovis. But now Nick has obligations and we don't know if we will ever go back or have to find a new place to be comfortable in. I just needed to get that out. Maybe now I can try to make this place a bit more like home, nah.
