Returning
Hello everyone. I've been gone from the old LJ for a long time. I finally plugged into the magic of wireless internet, and am sitting in my very blue very warm room here in Montmorency Australia.
I just uploaded about a billion pictures to Facebook. Check there for ideas into what I've been up to.
I am officially homesick tonight. Not for the first time, not for the last time, but certainly a sad time. I miss Morris' people. I miss being hugged and smiling with people who know my name. I taught a 9 year old Jeff'N's snapping game, where you pretend to toss a finger-snap. Hopefully it will catch on and be a global phenomenon.
I'm ready to go home. I'm ready to see the dripping of spring instead of the dusty haze of subtropical summer. I'm ready to marry the man who makes me so happy that I can sing out loud without knowing the words.
I've been spending a lot of time looking at pictures to cheer me up. They've made me miss home even more. Thank goodness for Laurel, and the family I'm staying with. Whenever I get bummed and blue, I think of going to Tazzy with Laurel, or feeding possums and eating TimTams. Whenever I feel like I need to just come downstairs and cry for a few hours, my Australian "Mum" brings me a mango treat, or asks me to help make homemade fruit roll ups.
Life is good. Every day is a choice. I choose to live today with joy and love.
PS- Some pictures
Stuff I'm looking forward to:
I want to go home.
