Hate is too strong a word

Hate is too strong of a word to put in the title, because I really don’t “hate” anything about it. But I do “dislike” a few things. So here is my list as of now, after living this lifestyle for the past eight months.
Number 1. Missing Family
This has to be the number one thing I don’t like about our traveling lifestyle. We are so glad that our daughter and her family live in our home state and when we do go home to Ohio we can park in their yard. We are able to plug in and hook up to water.

My mother is 90-years-old now and I talk to her on the phone regularly, but I feel that I could be missing out on her last years.
