it's a secret...

I don't want to admit it - but I'm already a little homesick.

I miss (in no particular order):

* Settling in with my cats and watching TV at night.

* Being able to use my cell phone (there is no service here for miles!)

* Having a fast internet connection, and not having every other page time out

* My cats

* My BED!

* My bathroom

* My SHOWER!!

* Being able to walk into town

* Seeing different people every day

* My CHIROPRACTOR!!!

* My town

* My boyfriend

* My friends

* Having shopping within 20 min - not 1.5 hours

* Not having spiders, flies, and all manner of bugs crawling on me nearly constantly

* Cooking

* My own laundry machines

* Did I mention my bed? And being able to use my cell phone? And my shower?

It's amazing the things you miss. I really miss being able to plan my own menus. Don't get me wrong - they feel us REALLY well here, and I hopefully won't starve. But it is a very limited menu, and it is pretty much impossible for me to keep to the nutrional plan I want to be on. If I did, I would eat pretty much just lettuce every day. :( I miss my baked salmon. I want grilled veggies that don't include peppers, onions and mushrooms...

I love where I am and what I'm doing, but it's good to know that home really is home, too...
