Homesick

This past week, I have started feeling homesick.  I think it started with Easter and realizing that hey, I don't have to drive around visiting relatives this year.  It was nice to not have to go from place to place and to be able to relax (not that I don't want to see my family, sometimes it just gets tiring when you have to go here and there and don't have a minute to relax during the weekend after working all week) but then not being able to do that made me sorta miss that.  I miss being able to see my family and friends whenever I want.  I also miss the feeling of home, our house, our yard, the comfort of feeling at home.  It doesn't feel like home here. :(  Maybe it will, but not yet.  Don't get me wrong, I like being able to walk to the beach.  I like having 3 day weekends.  I'm happy to be with my husband.  I think I just want to have my cake and eat it too!  Don't we all, right?  I try to tell myself that this is good for me b/c I have never moved this far away, never lived in another state, etc etc.  It's a time for growth!  So I'm praying that this sad, homesick feeling will fade away and that I can just feel content in where God has placed me right now.  Bring on the adventurous spirit!  Where is mine hiding?!? :o)
