I'm so far behind on wayward podcasts. 2017-18 I went through a lot of life changes. My oldest daughter got married and moved an hour and a half away. My youngest was a senior (homeschooling). I started working part time in the evenings then full time, then back to part time. And I fell in love with Supernatural and watched seasons 1-12 four times. Then I went to stay with my oldest daughter while my son-in-law was deployed. Now I'm living with my daughter and son-in-law for time being, not really sure of the future. The property that I call home has the house my parents brought me home to and mobile home my husband and I bought and brought our daughters home to. I was widowed in 2000. This property has been my home for 47 1/2 years. But it doesn't feel like home anymore or I don't want it to feel like home. I'm not sure. Here, with my daughter and son-in-law doesn't feel like home either. We just moved into a different rental home. This one and the one before are fine, good enough, but don't feel like home. I feel like the events that took place and the desire to leave that area have caused the loss of the feeling of home. It is not altogether bad, but I do feel the anxiety sometimes that if something were to happen I don't have that safe haven to go to. I do still have it, my mom still lives there, but it is too much for either to keep up and I want to get rid of it and bring my mom to this area, but she is 72 and doesn't really want to move. Probably because she doesn't want to lose the feeling of home. She has been there since 1967. And as a child they moved around a lot. Her dad was a sharecropper. Which is better, move often or stay in one place? I wanted to leave that property when my parents divorced in 1991, then a few more times after that. I didn't know what it would be like, not feeling like that was home. I love the wayward podcast. I love and appreciate kim and bri and everyone that makes the podcast possible. It helps! ❤❤ 😎🤩🤗😍😎

Like Bri, I've moved A LOT since I was little, and even more as an adult... HOME to me has become a feeling or people vs a place.

Kim... your raw emotions over the tent city near you is how I feel in my little city in NW NW Oregon... and with the prices of rent, working 2 jobs as a single parent to make that rent each month. Eviction is a real and heightened fear.... I have ideas... we should talk... And if you ever find yourself in need of a roof over you head... we don't have a lot of room, but my home is your home ❤

The fact that it's more convenient and probably cheaper for Bri to fly from LA to Canada to see her doctor, than just see and pay for diagnosis and meds in LA is incredibly disturbing and says volumes about America's health care.

I love both of your perspectives and feel that home is where my people are. My mom loved telling my brothers and I "to go the FUCK outside!" Good times 💚

Victoria is fucking expensive as well!! Like I’m lucky that I’m moving to my sisters place for $1k a month! 1 bedroom! Lot of others are paying $1300-1500 a month! 🙄
