I am back.
I can actually say I am glad to be back in RI. When I use to visit TN I would miss "home" when I came back here. This time is different. Clarksville no longer felt like home. It has changed so much in the last year and all together in the 2 years since I moved away. It doesn't feel like the same place. I was trying to give directions to the house I grew up in and I couldn't do it! There are so many new buildings, streets, and neighborhoods and I had no clue what they were called.
Does RI feel like "home" to me? No, not at all.
I am homeless for the time being.

I absolutely know how you feel. Growing up the child of a career military man, no place was really ever home to me.
It's a strange feeling.
A friend of mine told me that instead of viewing this as something negative, I should feel like a belog everywhere vs. nowhere. Hmmmmm.
Welcome home!
I don't feel like I belong everywhere. The places that I lived were like extended vacations.
would that be "clarksville" as in "last train to"?
yes, it would be, sj. Our train station even has a plaque about it. That song is a protest to the Vietnam War. Fort Campbell(huge army base) is right beside Clarksville.
I understand how you feel to. I am in limbo too. One day I'll feel like where I'm at is home.
We missed you!!
Glad you're finally back...missed you for awhile there!
