One Day at a Time
I realized today that it has been a little over three months since I have been home. Now, that may not seem like a very long time, but three months is the most time that I have gone without being able to go home. I have no idea when we will be able to get back home for a visit, so I am going to take everything one day at a time. I have had cousins move away and live in other states, but I have no idea how they do it. My closest friends are and have always been my family members. The only thing that I can think to do is take everything one day at a time.
I hate knowing how much I am missing at home. I really miss all the little things like going to my nephew's and niece's sporting events, playing games with my bro and sis-in-law, and just chilling at my mom and dad's house. I don't think that we will ever live in Billings again, but I hope that we get closer one day so that I can visit more often (and they can visit me).
I know to get through any feelings of homesickness that I will have to take it one day at a time.

Jazzy, I was raised to be very independent and it's something I thank my mother and father for all the time. But I remember when I was living in Germany, I'd been there for about a year when we went to see the Eagles in concert. They walked out on the stage and said, "Good evening we're the Eagles for Los Angeles, California." Suddenly I was so homesick I could have cried right there.
I don't know exactly how you feel, but I know at times it is a sad, lonely, hopeless, and sometimes lost feeling. I'm sorry that you are far from the rest of those you love. I hope that it will work out that you guys get to move closer to home.
You are in my thoughts too. Hang in there. You didn't mention lunchtime in your fond memories, damn you! :) That's what I miss too.
Cele,
It is friends like you that make things much easier. Thanks!
Lisa,
I miss our lunches VERY much! I can't believe I didn't mention it. (It must have just been too painful, so I blocked it from my mind) :)
