Now, we sit in a state of transition. The house is clean, I just have to keep it that way. It feels like we are running out of time to take care of the loose ends. At the same time, we are kinda just sitting here, waiting....thinking. I find myself reflecting on the people I have here. I have some absolutely wonderful mommy friends. Mommies that love it and struggle just like I do. Friends that know how it feels to not get enough sleep. Friends who don't get upset when I don't text back right away. Friends that I know I can lean on if I need to. I don't make friends easily, it has taken me along time. I will truly miss my special group of mommy friends.
I also have a few long time friends...friend that have known me from my Vida loca.(crazy life). Friends that may or may not relate to me as a mom, but we are bonded through time.
My husband has an enormous extended family in SD. His amazing grandmother had 8 children. I will miss the big fun family parties. I will miss the family connection for my children. I tend to be very guarded. Unfortunately, I have not formed overly strong bonds with many in his family. However, there is a good-sized handful that I just love to pieces. They are kind, generous, open loving people. I have always felt very comfortable and accepted by them. My heart hurts when I think about leaving the people I love in San Diego, My San Diego family. Thank goodness for social media or I would be a blubbering mess. Good-bye is not forever...it's just for now. I may not want to live in SD, but its a great place to visit.
