Where Is Home?

I will never be a Texan.  No way.  Just got back from a Brooklyn visit that included an emotional roller coaster.  Not the visit I had planned. A solo 5 days with all of my women friends was what I had in mind.  Films, theater, restaurants.  I got that all in while tending to a husband who was in crisis mode caring for a very elderly Mom.  This experience enhanced me and I observed incredible loving and kind human behavior from staff and family all caring about a very old 96 year old woman.  It doesn't get better than this in life.  But I am not a Texan.  I am a transplanted New Yorker with NYC roots in my blood.  Bronx/Brooklyn to be specific.  I am happy to be back in Austin. I am happy to be in our home.
