As I think I've said before, I'm sticking around this week because Cousin Kevin is getting married this weekend. It has been nice to have some time to relax and prepare. Don't get me wrong, time has flown. It's just a little weird not to have a routine schedule. I've mostly been doing some packing, cleaning, and A LOT of legal work. I'm making it so that my brother is Power of Attorney over all my affairs in case I need him to do anything. I can't believe what a hassle it's been. Lawyers are not cheap. I can see why divorce is so devastating. All the work I've had to do to put him on it, to have to take him off, what a pain!
I know since I've been out here I've talked of driving cross country, meeting new people, putting up with a starry eyed, twitterpated engaged sister. Sure I talk of post training parties, teachers, classmates, etc. But there is one thing I have failed to mention this entire time.
I MISS YOU ALL!
Yes, I hit a wall. I know home can be tough at times, but usually I'm only here for a maximum of a week. Now it's been a month and I've had the distraction of my language training class. But now that it's over I realized I miss my friends, and I'm feeling the lack of it. I miss being around people who know who I am. Who I can have deep spiritual conversations with.
I miss the Monsons with all their kids running around. I ache for the Priddis's and how I could just walk on over to their house. I miss Ben & Laura, Dean & Taralee. I miss Bev, my Indiana Mom who made me feel so much better when I talked to her on Saturday. I yearn to see Karen in the hallway and at the temple. I miss Kim Jenkins, my good friend. I miss being in primary and seeing Emily Switzer and Karma.
I know I can have good friends again once I get settled somewhere again. But until then, an entire month of not having everyone around has dragged me down a little. So while many adventures await, friends in Indiana, you are not forgotten.
