Home

Home, let me come home
Home is wherever I'm with you
Oh home, yes, I am home
Home is when I'm alone with you

This song (Home by Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros) has been in my head for about 2 months now thanks to my boss. But I also feel like it reflects this particular stage of my life. You see I have been absent from the blog because I have been absent from Tulsa. Last weekend was my first weekend home in 7 weeks. We went on vacation, saw 2 family members graduate, and I lost my grandmother. All of this consumed our weekends and while it was exhausting I realized that I am most at home when I am with my family and that means leaving Tulsa and going to Texas. I did miss my house and my dogs, but being away felt like I was at home since I was with the ones I love. Distance is a hard thing. The one thing I am grateful for is no more long distance relationship with my hubby (thank goodness that 3 years is over!). I know one day we will be closer to family so for now I have to be content with where we currently are. So here is to Tulsa (Tell me something bad about Tulsa) and many more roadtrips this summer!
