Still getting hit with it

The question that I have to field almost daily.."So, are you glad to be back?" Honestly, I don't know if it's just the only thing they can think of or if they are curious.

I have pondered it since I don't really have a canned answer. In short..yes and no. Yes in the regard that my wife is happy, my kids are happy, heck...even the dogs seem happy. One of our dogs was having an eye problem in Colorado that's vanished upon returning to Ar. I have made a new friend or 2. We are trying to start up an Airsoft club. Be more involved with church. There are soooo many things that are good.

The bad side is that simply I am not the same as I was. Colorado and the friends I made there has forever impacted and changed me. Probably for the good and the bad. Friends that I had here that were very close before I left seem much more distant. Probably due to the changes in me...although time didn't stand still for them. They, too, are slightly different.

The one thing that I learned that means the most to me in all the moving is...we weren't being punished as I thought and it was very immature for me to think that. I don't think it would have been such an easy decision to come back had I known that before hand. But, it is a lesson well worth the trip.

There's a lot of information that is omitted for the reader I bet...sorry for this non-sensical rambling.
