I am in denial that this new apartment is my home now. I have not put my pictures on the wall. I have tried 3 times now to go buy groceries for the cupboards. Tonight I finally got groceries and I discovered that even my Target is different. You know how when you go out of town you can go into a Walmart anywhere and it is just like you are at home? They are all the same. I went to Target this evening expecting that small comfort of home only to walk into some strange new layout. It was just wrong. The cheese was back on the back wall where the frozen stuff belongs and the school supplies were in the back corner where the bikes belong and the candy was in the bread isle. I feel like I have stepped through the looking glass. Everything is topsy turvy.
My stupid phone is not working right. It seems it was only able to recover from getting wet once. I have gone to the ATT store twice now to replace it and both times left without getting something new because I am trying to conserve my resources but it is driving me crazy. It is my lifeline to my people and it is on the fritz.
I'm homesick. I just want to go home and unfortunately my "home" does not exist anymore.
Where are some Ruby Slippers when you need them?
It's tough to move to a new place. Remember, you told me the first two months were going to be terrible- start marking the days off the calendar. It will be better before you know it. Oh- and Proverbs 3:5-6.
ReplyDelete- want me to come hang pictures with you? I will bring you chocolate.....
Oh man! Let me know if you need a visit. I don't mind coming to you!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry, Hopie. Adjustments are horrible for me, too, and they take way longer than everyone else seems to think they should. I'm a firm believer that they need you up there, though, and being needed is a powerful thing. I'll be praying for you!
