Good bye, Alabama.
We're moving up to Michigan at the end of the month. I was born and raised here, but a change is coming. Hubby accepted a job in Sault Ste Marie, MI, so off we go.

Good luck everybody!

1. Good luck to you too
I hope you enjoy your new home.

I moved away from Alabama for job reasons many years ago, but last week within the space of an hour, two different people asked me where I am from. They both knew I was from the South, but they weren't sure which state.

So, even though I don't live in Alabama any more, my softened Alabama accent goes with me whenever I move to a new state.

And now I keep up with Alabama news through phone calls and emails with friends, this forum, and my hometown newspaper.

Try to stop by every now and then in here. Alabama's still home. :)

6. Thanks everybody!
I can't believe I'm doing this. I'm scared to death and excited at the same time. For the first time in my life, I'll get to stay at home for a little while. This is what I wanted more than anything when the kids were small, but I'm glad I'll get to be with them now. They are 9 and 12 and still need the guidance of their mommy. I think my twelve year old is just afraid I'll be at her school too much helping or substituting. :)
