I missed yesterday. Maybe I need to make a list or leave myself a note as to my purposes here.
The week has quickly come to an end. I am expecting family for the weekend and I am rather pleased about that. All my family lives somewhere else and I wish I could see them more often. Thanksgiving is coming up (one of my favorite holidays) and I glad we will be off to see more of them. I wish I could say that the trips will be relaxing, a time to refresh, and all those good things, but it won't be. It will be busy, hectic, and I will return more tired than when I left. But, it is always worth it.
We are here in this place and it is fine, but we miss that other place where there is family and friends and familiarity. This place is still not familiar in that intimate way where you know every inch of it. We are still outsiders, the new people, adjusting to our new surroundings. Will we ever be "at home?"
