Home

From Wikipedia; A home is a place of residence or refuge and comfort. It is usually a place in which an individual or family can rest and be able to store personal property. Hmmmm I am thinking that I have not established a home yet, just the address! Over Thanksgiving we moved our personal property, came back to Kansas and closed on our house there. Then I, with a suitcase of clothing, went to my folks' in McCook and LaVern went "home". Now I am in Greeley and certainly feeling displaced at the moment. Although I must admit, being able to use my brother's computer anytime is instant gratification. My mom was transferred to a care facility here in Greeley yesterday. She was wore out by the time they got her settled and went through all the paperwork stuff. Now the difficult rehabilitation days are ahead. I may try to get HOME and take alittle break. Will drive my dad back to McCook for a couple days so that he can pick up his mail and check the house. Get him back here and then figure out the rest. This past month or so feel like I've been going nonstop, maybe even on autopilot as I'm still numb to the fact that I am here and not home. But as LaVern told me, "It's where you are suppose to be". Here is our new address........HOME...
1852 158th Ave, Diagonal, Iowa 50845
