It has been almost 8 months and it has finally arrived. I was just fine and dandy with life and then a week or two ago it just hit. I felt so alone. I still feel alone. And it didn't help that the crazies were being extra crazy. I needed someone to talk to. I needed someone to just sit with me. Lets just say that I really look forward to the days that Dan has off just so I have someone to talk to and be with--who is an adult--that I like. I'm not sure if Dan is as excited as I am, but he acts happy.
I miss the friends that I made in Orem and I know that I need to just make new ones, but that is a difficult one for me. I'm not the outgoing type and I keep to myself. Not the best personality for moving to a new state.
I really miss family. It is really hard to see someone everyday and then not at all (even if it was Jenna! :) I love you!) It is hard to be so far away.
This isn't like an every day all day feeling. It comes and goes. And for the most part I am happy. I have been trying hard to be positive and not think about it, but I have my moments. I think that this has actually made me (along with me wanting to be a better and more patient mom) start to do more spiritual things. I've been on a spiritual plateau for so long that this has started me--I'm hoping--towards a more full and exhilarating journey.
I know that these feelings will fade away, but for the moment, they are here and I am trying my hardest to deal with them positively.
I love and miss all you Utahns!
