Well, today I made my 4 hour drive back to Texas after being able to spend the last 4 months with my husband. When I was living in California and had to make the 12 hour drive I'd always cry when telling my husband goodbye. Today was different. It was great being able to say, "bye, love you. See you this weekend!" Instead of, "bye, love you. See you in a few months." It still wasn't easy, but it was sooo much easier.
Tonight will be my first time, since September, to spend a night alone (with my 2 dogs), in my new place. He and I have come down here to my place to unpack a couple of weekends, but those nights were restless nights even with him here. I think its because I'm in a new, unfamiliar place. That's the first time in over 4 years for me. So far so good though. When I got here I walked my dogs and got the mail. I had a couple of Christmas cards from family and friends, and a Cosmo magazine that another friend bought me a subscription to for Christmas. I've got some pretty great friends.
My apt is in an awesome location! After I got my mail, and not eating all day, I decided to go get a bite to eat. It only took about 10 mins total to get to and from Whataburger. It's so close to my apartment, its unreal! And also, probably not good for my health LOL. I didn't want to brave Walmart tonight for groceries, though. That's on tomorrow's to do list.
I got all my boxes in my bedroom unpacked and put up except a box that has all my pictures in it. That's also on my list tomorrow, hang pictures and make my place more homey since I'll be here until I'm done with school. I also got my tv put together and set up in my bedroom. No cable yet, but that'll come soon enough. My mom got us the tv I hooked up for Christmas. It's pretty nice. I'm also impressed that I got it all hooked up by myself. Living on my own for the past couple of years has really taught me how to be more independent. I've always been pretty independent, however, having to deal with flat tires alone, other car problems alone, killing spiders on my own (I'm terrified of spiders) I realized that I wasn't as independent as I thought. I've become more so now though.
I was hoping that I could pick up some WiFi from a neighbor that wasn't password protected, but I couldn't be so lucky. So I sit here on my smart phone blogging. Internet will come soon enough too. My husband will be here this weekend to hook my computer up and hopefully get set up with a cable/internet bundle.
I realize this is my second post today. But this mornings had a lot to do with not being able to sleep. I don't wanna live back in NM ever again, but I wasn't ready to come to Texas yet either. At least not on my own yet. Guess I'd better put on my big girl panties and deal with it though.
Well, I've got another busy day tomorrow! Hope everyone has a wonderful week!
