I really needed and wanted to be productive and get some work done this evening at home. I don't have what I need and that bothers me. So I have to hurry in the morning at work to make a quiz and print and copy it. I am not amused.
I wrote on Facebook "Today, I miss our families." With the piling amount of personal events going on in our families, I find myself wishing we could pack up and spend a lot more time with them all. I want to help my mom. I want to hug the necks of my aunts and uncles. I want to snuggle the new family members. I want to hold their hands, comfort them, listen to them and be there. I feel like we are a million miles away. I've considered... hey, let's finish this year and move back to be closer to family. But there are fewer opportunities. Could all the dead space between our two regions disappear?
I can only imagine how our lives would be different if we had not moved so I could attend graduate school. It's something that I don't want to dwell on. I know the decision to move was preferable to staying in what would be a dead end for us. I love Dallas and the suburbs. So much culture and so many activities. A diverse mix of, well, everything.
But the one thing that pulls me back is our families. I love them all. If you see this, I love you all.
