A Horrible Day

Admittantly, it's hard. I am feeling the first few pangs of missing home. I haven't danced in a while and I miss that too... all those summer concerts in southern Cal!! Also, the lack of enough positive reinforcement on this sudden move and fast engagement is discouraging, if not downright depressing.

I'm selfish. I sorta knew, but not really. I've lived the single life for so long that having entered into back into a serious, committed relationship is a little... scary. Am having an OK week.

I think the stress of moving out of state, being out of my environment, my network and support group still in So Cal, having fought on the phone with my Mom and not knowing where what assignment I am working next... and this HEAT!!! It's just getting to me... and to David.

We both have been absorbing some stresses in both our circle of friends... Rich & James on their pending adoption of Baby Nate... and David... (this is heartbreaking to even post)... a childhood friend of his was brutally beaten and murdered in her apartment the other day. She's the daughter of a county judge and it's all over the news up here.

It's just... a horrible day. Please pray for us.
