I promise I'm coming home....
Okay, I've been on my adventure, and have returned to one of the most stressful, emotional, and crazy times in my life - EVER... and as I stated in my subject - I'm finally coming home.
I didn't want to post anything until I knew for certain what was going on, and just yesterday I finally got that certain. Well, almost certain.
I had hoped to be home by the beginning of the month, and well - we've bypassed that plan already, and gone straight into the "by Christmas" one... but this one has been thwarted somewhat as well. All of which has been out of my hands and causing a fair bit of strife.
Here's the plan.
I'm here in the Seattle area until the 23rd, when I take off for Grande Prairie, Alberta to visit my brother for Christmas. Not being allowed to leave the area until the afternoon on the 22nd made it RIDICULOUS for me to consider coming all the way home. Seriously.. what would have cost me $240 for a one way ticket home was going to cost me $1288 - I swear to jebus. I couldn't justify spending that much on something I know is so much less only a few weeks before and after, and there was no way in hell I was going to spend Christmas here - so I was invited to AB, and was surprised at a fantastic deal on a flight.
I'll be staying with my brother over the holidays, and also for New Years.... I apologize to some people who have recently been inviting me to wonderous New Years festivities. Maybe next year I'll throw another party... I'm about due, right?
So, as for me getting back to the city - it looks like early january. First week. I'll confirm once I have that ticket home.
I'll be in the market for an apartment (keep your eyes peeled for me! :P), a job!! omgosh... good cell phone plans, and internet providers... so any help or advice with picking those would be super. :)
As for my health - I'm a mental wreck, but according to my therapist, that's completely okay and acceptable and expected with what I've been through the past while. I'm doing well enough, but emotional all the same. I have good days and really terrible ones... but I'll get through it.
I love you all... I think of you often.. I'm gonna miss the ones here very much.. and look forward to getting back with the ones back home.
I can't wait to have some semblance back in my life.
I'm ready to move forward.
