New Hometown...

One of my favorite songs is by Sara Evans its called New Hometown. Its about this couple that are looking for a new place for their love to grow.  A new place that they can call a home of there own.

This last year jonathan and I had decided to try and find our own hometown. He lived in Doaktown and I lived in Miramichi. We actually wanted to live in Grey Rapids. oh there was this house... I wanted it soo bad. But we made the big decision that our new hometown would be Doaktown. With much thinking we new that this was the hometown we wanted to call our own. We wanted to grow here. We wanted this to be our home.

I grew up in Miramichi. So I know what small town syndrome was all about. OK I THOUGHT I knew what small town syndrome was. At first when I moved here I knew that I was gonna get people staring at me. I knew because of our situation that I was the "new woman" I knew the town would be all talk about who is this girl. Well its been a year. I have learned many things. I have learned who I can trust and who I cant. I have learned who are my friends and who are not. I have learned what to say and what not to say and who to say stuff too.

Jonathan and I own a house. I have become a new member of the village of doaktown. I have changed all my addresses. I have even havea phone number now. We have now started renovating our house. there has been much talk about what is going on at our house. So much so that we have even had visitors to our house. People who would never come to our house to visit have come to our house to visit just to see what is going on. Didnt think it was a big deal. well it is a big deal to me especially if you have seen our house. But if you see tools, wood, new windows, new doors and people in tool belts.. guess what Iam doing... yes renovating!

but if you would liketo know all the details just ask me. Become my friend and just ask what I am doing. and maybe when its all done I will call my friends and have them over for some drinks and girl talk! Gotta love small town gossip!!
