I have a BIG decision to make in the coming weeks/months.
My mom really wants me to come home and live with her again, at least for a few months.
She is having some housing troubles and feels that having a "dependent" living there again will lessen some of the brunt (though I'm not entirely sure how).
She informed me today that there is a lien on the house because of a truck that her and my dad bought ten years ago (which was repo'd because they couldn't pay for it).
The lien is for $15,000.
So, I have to decide if I can go back there and live with her for a few months.
3-6 months, to be approximate.
I'm praying about this decision.
But, I know that if I go back I am going to be miserable.
For as much as my mom wants me back, she knows that we don't get along regarding anything.
We fight and argue all the time - nothing I do is ever good enough.
She makes stupid decisions and is too negative for me to understand or enjoy.
She misses having people around - it's only her in the house now.
She has a crappy dating life - she's never happy by herself and always needs to be in a relationship.
That is also the cause of strife among us...
I also do not miss my real hometown of Bangor.
I was just talking to my sister about how if I never lived there again I would be more than happy.
I see the life that some of the people I graduated with have there and it's not something that I desire.
I don't have a church home back there, and I would miss Providence sooooooooooooo much.
I'm a little upset that my mom wants me to leave my life and who I'm becoming to go back there, because she wouldn't do that for me.
I would have to put my life, as I know it, on hold.
And find a job somewhere around there.
I don't really have anyone I would call "friend" living there...
It's not at all something I want to go back to.
In the pit of my stomach I am dreading having to pray about this and decide what to do.
I'm scared I'm going to be like Jonah and have to go back to my version Ninevah.
But, as much as I have no desire to go back, I know I have to listen to God's voice in this situation.
I have to pray about it and see what he says and follow Him in it.
