Bear with my first post, as it’s long. I tried to put into words what I, and maybe others, may be feeling.

Yesterday I went to visit my house and check on how things were looking. In true Amanda fashion I didn’t have a house key so I couldn’t get in my house. (I’m sure a family member has a copy as I just moved in a few months ago.) Driving away from my house I heard a song by James Arthur called “Quite Miss Home” come on Pandora and I cried. I cried for my friends who have been separated from their husbands who work in hospitals or are first responders, for my sister, new born niece and the rest of her family who are in Florida, and for a coworker I call a great friend who could use a few prayers. I cried for my clients, many of them children, and how disrupted their lives have been. I cried for Louisiana.

Ida has displaced so many and left so many without electricity or, for some, no homes to return to. While Ida has disrupted what feels like home, Covid-19, for many, also did the same. Home here in Louisiana isn’t just where we return from work to rest and start the next day. Home is Jazz Fest and Mardi Gras. Home is red dresses and second line dances. Our home is our family, friends, and the culture we celebrate. Many of our 2020 and 2021 experiences have left many feeling like they “Quite Miss Home”.

My heart is heavy for health care workers, first responders, armed forces, Louisiana, and everything these last two years have brought. I will continue to pray for peace, safety, health, and our home. I know that we are strong and together can build back the home we all miss.
