Home is wherever I'm with them

This weekend was a very much-needed weekend at home. I love school and my friends, I love going out and dressing up, etc. etc. etc. But sometimes you just need a little check in. A simple “hi, these are the people that love you and make you who you are.” It was pretty nice. It felt like a million years since I had seen everyone (even though I had just seen Mom and Dad and Kiks for the Meyer’s party on Tuesday) I just love messing around and the constant laughter that is all of us together. 

I didn't realize how much I was craving a home cooked meal, a hug from my mom, joking around with my dad, snuggles with Ruebs, the easy back and forth between me, Liz and Kiks. Something as simple as waking up and crawling into Mom's and Dad's bed, talking with her, Liz and Kiks about anything and everything. It makes me the happiest.

Right now is the first time since moving in that I have been alone in my apartment. Between roommates and people visiting, there has not been any dull moments, or quiet for that matter. It’s a constant flow of human interaction and lots of laughter. 

Being at school this always happens, you live with people, around people, and in classes with people. Sometimes I forget how nice it is just to be able to sit and just be, I forget to pay attention to things for myself because I am constantly in “go” mode. That’s not to say I haven’t been alone, at work there are times where it is just me, or when I nap. But this is rare so I am taking the moment to stop and appreciate it.

So far so good on the school front. I like all my classes, and just now switched into a new one that I'm hoping is a better fit. Need to get a couple more books and then I am good to go. 

Things I need to remind myself-

1. you do not have to be everywhere, this is in fact impossible so stop trying.

2. drink water

3. actions speak louder than words
