And That's Who I AM!

My beautiful Daughter

So, I wanted to try my hand at this whole blog thing. It seemed like a no brainer, since I am usually such a talker. I named my blog after a John Mayer Song, "The Home Life". It sort of sums me up. It's who I am, a wife, a mother, a daughter, and a friend. I'm just a simple, country girl with everyday challenges. Sometimes my husband drives me crazy. Sometimes my kids make me wanna have a nervous breakdown. Sometimes I just wanna be a free individual, no strings attached. Then I think, This is who I am. This is what I was destined for. A home life.  This is my life as it relates to music. And here are the Lyrics to the song that defines me.

My husband and Son

Home Life.

Think I'm gonna stay home
Have myself a homelife
Sittin' in the slow-mo
And listenin' to the daylight
I am not a nomad
I am not a rocket man
I was born a house cat
By the SLIGHT of my mother's hand
Think I'm gonna stay home

I want to live in the center of a circle
I want to live on the side of a square
I used to be in my ?? SCENE
You'll never find me 'cause my name isn't there
Homelife
I'm holding out for the homelife
My homelife

I wanna see the ending
I wanna learn a last name
Finish on a Friday
And sit in traffic on the highway
See I refuse to believe
That my life's gonna be
Just some string of incompletes
Never to lead me to anything remotely close to a homelife
I'm holding out for A homelife
My homelife

I can tell you this MUCH, I will marry just once
And if it doesn't work out, I'll give her half of my stuff
It's fine with me
We said eternity
I will go to my grave, with the LOVE that I gave
Not just a melody line on a radio wave
It dissipates
And soon evaporates
Homelife doesn't change

I want to live in the center of a circle
I want to live on the side of a square
I'd love to WALK TO WHERE we both can talk
But I've got to leave it 'cause my ride is here
And my homelife
You take a homelife
You keep a homelife
Come back for the homelife I promise
Homelife I promise
Life
Homelife
Homelife
