i guess this only applies to those of you who live out of state, or not in your home town, but do any of you just miss "home"? i've been particularly homesick these past few days. not just for family, but for "home" too. ever since being with family over spring break i've been longing to go home. actually not sure why i'm shocked, this usually happens when i see family members after not seeing them for a long period of time. the first time it happened after we moved here i think jeff thought something was wrong with me. i just cried after my mom and dad left. having family visit is like a love/hate situation for me. before they visit i'm totally content with life and loving arizona, then they come and once they leave i lose it! sometimes i think it would almost be better for me to never see them... then there wouldn't be this rollercoaster of emotions!
i've also been listening to this cd that just reverts my mind to my family, my home, and childhood. do any of you have cds like that? like they're kinda like your sanctuary? ok, well i do. then to make my current longing for home worse, my very sweet dad called me the other day just because he was listening to "the way you look tonight" in his car and it made him think of me. he thinks of my wedding day when he hears that song:) love you dad.
thank heavens i'm coming home in a month for my nephew fox's blessing or i think i would go crazy! i'm counting down the days, and i don't think it can get here fast enough. so to those family and friends that i live far away from, i love and miss you very much, and i'm thinking about you. ok, that's all.

I am sorry that you're homesick. I hate being homesick, and I don't even live away from home. Sometimes my sister who lives in Denver gets homesick and it makes me sad! :( It makes me sad that you're homesick too! Hope things get better!

hilary,
thx so much for getting me connected w/ all the blogs. i appreciate you showing me around a bit. talk to you soon! :) kalie
We miss you, Hilary! I am so sorry that you are homesick. I know I would be too if we lived out of state. Hang in there. At least you have something to look forward to in a month. And we are so excited to have you come in July. :)
Hil...I've felt it too. I don't know what it is, but something about the last month or so has made me so homesick for my family, my house, my friends, and North Ogden in general. I think about you everyday and secretly plan weekend trips to Glendale in my head. I am actually going to be in Tempe next weekend...I don't know the schedule quite yet. I'll check on it and call you.
sniffle. i miss you too sister. so much. what cd is this of which you speak?
I know the feeling of homesick. I am always a little homesick. A month will fly by. Hang in there.
Hilary that is so sad, you make me not want to move away. I can't imagine how crappy it is to have to say goodbye to your mom and dad. Well keep your spirits up!
