What I Know

I spend most of my days recently trying to figure out where my family should live. Just when I think I have had enough of my family in Southern California, a room full of them call on Skype and look lovingly at Josie while looks back with her special smile she only gives to them. And just when I think I am ready to pack everything up and move to LA, I feel a cool breeze while my kids and I play outside in perfect Northern California weather and wait with excitement for Norm to come home and complete our happy family.

Since having children I have never been so overwhelmed by so many decisions that never seem to have a clear right or wrong answer. Maybe its a blessing that we love Northern California so much and we love my family so much. But to quote my favorite ocd detective, Monk, its a blessing and a curse.

My mind is racing and will hopefully come to a screeching halt in time to get a good night's sleep. Hopefully I can focus on the present and focus on what I know. I know the right decision will become clear in its own time. I know no matter what our family of 4 and possibly more will always create a home wherever we are. And, above all else, I know no matter where we live, we will never be Dodger fans.
