Taking an Assessment
Published on September 18, 2008 By KFC Kickin For Christ In Life Journals

I've been here 10 months so far and the time has both flown by in some aspects and seems forever at other times.  During this time I've......

1.  Made some new friends, but in a slow kind of way.  Am not the big party girl type. 

2.  Have enjoyed decorating my new home and planting new flowers in my front yard

3.  Have stepped up my activity  by biking and swimming but have run less mileage and no road races

4.  Have actually seen the boys more this year and will see my middle son and his family next week when they visit us here.

5.  Miss my old friends........alot and since I had alot of friends that's alot of missing to do. 

6.  Get homesick once in a while especially now because it's apple season back home.  I love apple orchards.

7.  Have not found a job yet

8.  Miss coaching the kids back home especially after receiving a new pic from the girl's team in uniform yesterday. 

9.  I love the weather here.  It's the best part of living in Florida. 

10.  Have too much time on my hands and not sure what to do with it and where #7 should come in. 

11.  Have not found a real church family even after 10 months of searching

12.  Have bouts of depression which isn't serious but something I've never had before.

Good luck on the job. 

The temps here have gotten nice, not cold yet - lows in the 50s, highs in the upper 70s - we should get about 3 days of that before it either gets hot again - or cold.

A lot of these sound like me when i moved in here a year and a half ago...

Hope the "not so good things"  work out for ya. 

It's really tuff to move,  it changes almost every aspect of one's life!

Hang in there!
