Broke the ice with the family - California in sight
I knew I wouldn't be down here long, but after hurricane katrina I vowed to come down here and help not just my family, but friends and neighbors rebuild and get my hometown region of Southeast Louisiana a helping hand and do my two cents worth of helping our country back on its feet.
Well, its been two years. It's been a lot of fun, a lot of pain but yesterday I broke the ice and mentioned we may in fact be thinking about moving back to California.
Without hesitation, my mom responded "if thats where you want to go baby, you do it."
The same words she told me when I left home when I was 20, not even legal drinking age and I was leaving home with a box and a bag.
32 now, and can't wait to get back.
cheers everyone. life is what you make it and what direction you take it.
