Well, it finally hit....
Wow, I knew this was coming, but I didn't expect it to be like this....I can't stop crying today. I talked to Zac this morning and he is so excited about his job and his new personal trainer he is working out with. Got a sweet email from my friend, Deb, that I go to school with. It's the last day of class for my group at school before they graduate in December...And my stuff arrived from home....ah, my afghan my Mom made me....and I haven't quit crying most of the day so far. It's so odd...I like what I'm learning here, and I am adjusting to my new environment...and most importantly, I know it's a short assignment, but I'm just plain homesick today. I feel like the world in Iowa is revolving, but I'm missing everything. I know it will get better, I know it will, but right now...oh, geez, I need a kleenex!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As the very true statement goes, this too shall pass. So let it all out. It is ok and soon you will feel more like yourself. And yes, you are missing out on things happening in Iowa. The corn is drying out, farmers are pushing the deer onto the roads where people are hitting them with their cars. The leaves are starting to fall, so we are raking and our backs hurt. Soon the snow will fall and we will have to shovel the stuff and then head to the back cracker to fix our soar backs. Oh yes, you are missing so much!
So this was my attempt at comedy. Hope you laughed.
Once you feel you have gotten the tears out of your system, take a deep breath, smile and enjoy your adventure. You are getting to do something that most of us will never do. So we are counting on your stories and pictures to enlighten us.
