A case of the homesicks...

Some days I feel so disconnected from everything. I think it’s because in a lot of ways I am. Since Matt and I moved we’ve come to realize that the people we love the most in the world know nothing about our lives any more. Matt’s mom and sister have seen some of our lives here, but not everything. We now have a church and have made a lot of new friends, which has helped so much. But it’s still a very separate world from what we’ve known all our lives.
I think this is why I’ve been so homesick the past couple of days. It’s so hard for me when I know my family is together and I can’t be there too…hence the disconnected feeling. I know I’m going to miss birthdays, Mother’s and Father’s Day, weddings, 50th wedding anniversaries…and it makes me ache. I know that this is all part of the moving process and I get that, but it’s just hard when you want to go home for a few days and you can’t. Do I sound like I’m whining?? I’m sorry. I don’t mean to. I really am happy here, but I miss my fam.

In A Nutshell

So, its been too long since I've blogged but we still don't have internet at our apartment so its kind of hard to stay on top of the blogging. I don't have a lot of time to type so I'm just going to put it all in a brief overview. Here goes...

Home for Christmas was AMAZING and I did NOT want to leave. Miss the family SO much! Traveling for the holidays...not on my list of favorite things. SetApart...ROCKED!! It was an honor to be on the flip side of things and be a part of the process. Hanging out with people I love did my heart more good than they'll ever know. Sea World with Heath, Karen and the nieces was so much fun...a childhood dream come true for me. The return to Indiana meant a new job at WIF...I'm loving it. Normal routine, work, home, work @ home, eat, sleep, start all over. But, we're building some awesome relationships and its starting to become more comfortable. We picked a church. Matt had bronchitis, I think I have some blood sugar issues. I owe Heath comic books. Lots of babies to be born in the next few months (not to us), good year ahead.

Resolutions: Get out of debt, move closer to where we work, get organized.

So there you go. The highlights. Hopefully there'll be pics soon! Love to all!
