Same thing when I worked in an office for 11 years. <br /><br />Even now, if I'm out more than a couple of hours, I keep wishing I was back home. Most weeks I only leave home to go to church and get groceries.<br /><br />My husband asks me if I ever get bored, andDawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00487739974246714580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-1624809062322559422017-08-24T14:01:41.644-07:002017-08-24T14:01:41.644-07:00We live in a small town with only an overpriced, l...We live in a small town with only an overpriced, limited stock grocery store, so for nearly 20 years I've had to drive an hour away in one direction, or a half hour away in another to stock up on supplies and food we can't get here.

Thank you! I have been feeling more of that these last few years. And I now know I must listen to that feeling. Home is the best place to be on most days.

Even though I am in my early 20s, I have never felt the urge to travel the world (as seems to be the case with most of my peers). No, I am quite content to remain in my cozy nest with my children.
