And into a picture with me!!
So, I've gotta admit, I'm homesick. Terribly homesick. I can make it through most of the day cheerfully. Until I stop to think, and then I'm suddenly overwhelmed by how far away from home I am, how scattered my friends are, how little I know anyone here. It's scary. No family, no church home, no friends. No one.
And then on top of the sheer loneliness, I feel guilty. I am a horrible person. I don't get nearly as much work done when I'm emotionally drained like this. I also tend to be snippy with people who don't deserve my bad attitude. But if anyone dares to confront my faults, I deny everything. Vehemently.
So that's this week so far, but it's only Monday. Maybe it'll get better?
By the way, my family was here this past weekend! I had so much fun with them, and I was glad they took the time to come see me, but it really stunk getting left behind Sunday afternoon. I wanted to beg them to take me with them.
