I grew up in Southern California. So sunny, so wonderful. I came to Utah to go to school, met my husband, and we have been here ever since.
For New Years we went back to CA to visit my old stomping grounds. It was perfect as usual. Now we are home. It is cold, my kids want to be outside. I want to be outside. My husband and I have spent the last week and a half trying to figure out how we can move. Quick.
Given that we are not moving quick, and that I need to have a slight attitude adjustment I decided to sit down today and write down all the things I love about where I live.
The mountains are beautiful
Skiing is 25 minutes away
There are seasons here. Spring and Fall are heaven
We live in a very safe place
We have family close by
My husband and I have jobs that support our family
Great Schools for our children
Low cost of living
Our home
Our neighborhood
Negative things came to mind first but I got over that. It reminded me that my troubles are of little consequence and I am very, very blessed. I live in a wonderful place.
So where do you live? I would love to know what you love about where you live. Do share.
