Is it so wrong?

At first when it happened, that was all anyone could talk about. 3 months later, it still occupies the thoughts of people day in and day out. My mom happens to be one of those people. Any chance she gets, she talks about Katrina, shows off her pictures of the house after Katrina. Of course my sister's and I think to ourselves, why God is she doing this again? At Thanksgiving dinner she brought the pictures, I gave her an earful about it, no one wants to talk about it right now, no one wants to be reminded of why we're in Las Vegas in the first place when we should be at Aunt Joan's. We just want to put it behind us and move on, I no longer want to be seen as a victim, it happened, time to move on with our lives. My mom is stuck in one place...and she isn't budging. I don't know, maybe because we aren't from New Orleans we don't have that certain attachment, my sister's and I didn't plan on staying after college...

She's made up her mind, come January she and Amber and even Twinkie are moving back to New Orleans. I can understand that's her home, that's where she wants to be, and she'd be happier in New Orleans before she'd be happy in Colorado. But I don't understand why once again she would want to split the family up. There is nothing to be gained from going back to New Orleans right now, her family and friends aren't there, she won't be able to live in her house. Amber will have to go to Ben Franklin, something she's done her best to avoid. She'll also have to pay rent (double the usual price) and pay her mortgage on the house. The logical thing would be to go to Colorado until everything resolves with the insurance company and then to decide from there. But she's indecisive, and if she feels this is the right decision for her, then I support her. I just won't move back with her.
