So Far Away

Suddenly, I feel very far away from home.

I live in Oklahoma, no where near where my family resides. Nowhere near Gramma and Grampa's 60th Anniversary Party which I am sorry to be missing. Nowhere near my little brother who decided he's going to Ohio State for school [and failed to call and tell me the news]. Nowhere near my pain in the ass dog that also happens to make me smile every time I think about her.

I live in Oklahoma and I am far from home, but I am blazing the path to the future I want for myself. Sometimes it's just hard to let go of the things that helped put you here [not that I will ever let go of my family....EVER] but this is kind of metaphorical here too.

In other news, one of the ladies at work gave me a Holly Hobby apron she had when she was a sixth grade because she didn't want it anymore and because she knows I wear aprons when I cook and do dishes. Yeah, I'm that girl. It's like I'm preparing to be the best housewife ever. Ha, yeah, a long way off from being a wife. I'm very happy where I am in life in that department. So much to do before I share my everything with someone for the rest of my life. Let's not take this lightly.

SYLYB.
