This whole having to get my life sorted out thing is kind of a problem. I get closer to the fork in the road and still have no idea what I really want.
I guess we'll see how the next couple of weeks go. Darren's parents are off to mexico and we've got the kids. I think it'll be a pretty good litmus test to see exactly how well I'll deal with being some kind of parental figure full time if I choose to stick around.
They aren't /bad/ kids or anything. just your typical adolescents who pretty much hate everything. Which I am no stranger to, really. even at 26 :/
So there's that, and then I head home december 10. Should be good times. I am quite looking forward to it. I have no idea how long I'll be home for. We've left it open ended. Darren's not terribly thrilled but... if I'm happier at home then home is where I'm going to go. He always says he'd fall apart if I'm not around which is kind of icky to me. I'm really uncomfortable with people who NEEEEEEEEEEEEEED to be with someone to function. And... I mean... we've discussed it and everything but I don't think he really gets it.
Anyways. I return the last of my kit tomorrow and nov 30th is my last working day. I go on leave til the 16th and then that's all she wrote. huzzah!
