Hmmmm. Just one of those not sure how you are feeling days. Happy I am in TX with good weather, but also sad, because I miss home too. Certain things I miss are hanging out with my old friends that I have know forever and being able to talk about whatever. Laugh, cry, chill, hanging in your draggy clothes etc. I miss the comforting part of being with a bff. Knowing you are not judged and that your kids are not judged. Life is just good. I am really missing my friends from IL. I want to have a fire pit and hang out with Dave Matthew's Band playing in the background and eating smores and sharing old stories. Watching our kids playing and having fun. I miss the simple things. I miss being able to go to my parents, aunts and uncles, or cousin's houses to just say hi and stay for dinner. I miss the little things. The most important things.... FRIENDS and FAMILY. Things some how just seem more simple when my friends and family are around. This Easter we will be solo this year. I was hoping my parents could come down to visit, but they can't. So, Rich , the kids and I may just take a trip to the Moody Gardens or something to enjoy some time of celebrating Jesus and being surprised by the Easter Bunny.
With all of this being said. I do have to say I have met a handful of new pepole. One I think is my guardian angel watching over me and my family. One I have me makes me some how want to be organized and totally independant. I have also met another great genuine person that just makes my life somehow not seem so nuts. I do the same for her. We lean on one another, and trust and respect both of our opinions. I am starting to make or should I say figure out some of the people I have met her could be life long friends. Which is great. I don't want a bunch of random friends. I want a few close friends. That I can laugh, cry, be cranky, anal or whatever and they still love me for me. I love all of my friend for their quirks too.
This blog is a lot of random talk, I know, but bare with me. I am very tired and took some medicine that makes me sleepy sometimes. Just know this.... As much as I miss home. I have also met some great friends and guardian angels on my adventure though TX..

I thought this was so true and it was sent at a time when I couldnt sleep and everyone else in the house was passed out so I read it a few times and really made me miss being closer to friends and family butmade me appreciate what we do have here. I am not a big fan of the weather, which I am hoping will change soon, I definitely feel a little alone, bryan has been my rock. I know we have a million things going on in our lives with husbands that travel and I hope u know I am always here to lean on. I go through it at a much smaller magnitude and its hard enough on me so I can empathize. I like this blog. Never done one before. Love the Kilcoyne clan. We need to plan a BBQ or moms day out SOON!
