We moved from our home state back in 2000 and I still long for home and all my friends. We are actually only about a 3 hour dive away and I could "go home" and stay with friends juat about any weekend I would like but as my girls get older I find that happening less and less with their commitments. They have settled in so much here that "going home"' is a pain to them. All their friends, and their lives are here now. It makes me sad sometimes to realize how much they have settled here when really all I'd like to do is move "back home". But over the years so much has changed "at home" that I realize that I can't go back again...my best friend, like us, moved to another state following her husband's job. My parents moved to another state for their retirement, my brother lives in yet another state & has since his enlistment in the Navy. I thank god for unlimited long distance phone service and my internet access. If it wasn't for the phone and email I think I would go nuts. I too find solace and insparation via great web sites like Mamasourse & yahoo answers. Have a great day & keep typing!! :-) I know what you are going through.
