So I have been in Pittsburgh for almost 3 weeks now. I love my job. The kids are wonderful and I love teaching the preschool age. I am just having a harder time than I thought I would with being away from home. I miss my mother and brother sooooo much. My friends were my sisters back home and I want nothing more to just be able to go and see them. There is alot going on here right now, with Andrew and I paying for the wedding, looking for a house, and trying to start our lives here in Pittsburgh. I tend to take it all in hour by hour. Hopefully soon it will be day by day, then maybe I will adjust.
I never saw myself leaving Indiana "for good" and the more of a possiblity that seems, the more upset or stressed I get. Don't get me wrong, I like Pittsburgh and I am trying to adjust but it will never be "home" to me. Home is where I had the Christmas Day gatherings at my grandparents home, summers on the lakes, and birthday celebrations with my friends. Andrew means the world to me and that is why I am here. For him. Because he would do the same for me. It's just hard because my heart aches for my family and friends. I guess a five hour drive isn't too bad. lol.
I guess I just needed to vent. I get homesick when I think of all the AMAZING times with my friends and family. I am a lucky girl. I cherish and value them all so much. Home is where the heart is, and my heart was left in Indiana.
