We're Back...*sob*!!

So, we're back in the big land of Texas and I just can't get in to it. I guess having your house on the market and knowing that you really want to live somewhere else can be a downer. It's always hard to come back from visiting family and realize you're all alone (figuratively) in your area. Yes, I have some friends here and I do love them dearly, but there's nothing like family. I'm so jealous of those of you who live near your family. Don't take it for granted. Don't complain about meddling family or the umpteenth baby/wedding shower you HAVE to go to this week. I miss those things. I want my kids to have grandma and grandpa come to school on grandparents day. I want Sunday dinners with my sister and her kids. I want aunts and uncles to wrap their arms around my boys and give them advice that they won't take from me. But my little pity party has to end soon because the fact is that we're here and we're here until our house sells. And it looks like that will be a while. So my pity party will end tonight. Tomorrow morning I will be loving Texas again and living with the enthusiasm and energy that makes life fun wherever you are. I know I can do it...it's what I usually can do just fine. It's definitely the better way to live anyways...pity party's aren't fun when they go on too long.
