Well here I am. To me I have the perfect house (apart from the landlord having multiple personalities and an innate ability to read or understand anything that I say or send to him. I have this awesome 29x19 screen porch. My front yard looks like a jungle (seriously!)! !
Daily its warm out. Around 80F. It really is my little piece of heaven. I have to get some furniture for the screen room so I can sit out there during the day. Just some seats and maybe a low table. I also want to put curtains up with twinkle lights so we can sit outside at night without the entire neighborhood looking on. It is a quiet neighborhood though so that may not even be an issue.
It's pretty close to perfect. In a few months I'll have it all set up and it will be perfect. Sad thing is that despite all this I'm horribly home sick. Maybe I'm just lonely. My sweetie goes to work until 5 pm daily. He leaves before I get up and then comes home just in time for supper. He comes home tired (which is expected). All my friends are far far away from me so visiting is not even a remote option without great expense paid out. My transportation during the day are my two feet. As capable as they are, the walk to the nearest bus stop (which I was told to never go on as it's not safe by everyone in this family) is a good 2.5 km
His family is awesome to me. Thank God! I hear so many people have so much trouble with their in-laws. I am happy to say I don't have that. Not yet anyway. I really don't think I will. That being said.. their family. You just don't have the same friendships with family that you do with your good friends. Well - at least i don't. Even his girls (who are both adults) are super nice to me. We've had our issues in the past but for right now all is well.
Things are going to start moving and shaking around here soon. You're supposed to be so excited at this time in your life but I'm mostly blah with it. I'm also supposed to be going out and finding a dress and some pretty flowers - but who's gonna go with me? It's no fun shopping alone. Besides you have no one to put their two cents in when things don't fit/look right. A girl needs this! I have his girls but it's not my people. Maybe I'm being stubborn and a silly but I want my people here with me to do this - but again this cannot happen.
I think next week I'm going to look into taking some night classes. At least that way I can get out and maybe meet some new people. I think I won't be so lonely that way. I just have to wait a bit more and then I can go volunteer at the children's hospital here.
I just miss my Thing 2, my person and my friends. I miss all of my stuff being right where I need it. I miss my work people - hell I miss working! (never thought I'd say that) I miss snow too - sad but yes.. you can actually miss snow. I hope the homesick passes quickly. Being sad all day sucks :(
