Three week anniversary today!
Haha...
So...
Here I am...
In many ways it feels a LOT longer than 3 weeks.
I was going to say it feels like I haven't been here long at all too, but then I thought about it and No...to be honest it does just feel like I've been here a lot longer than 3 weeks.
And I am happy to be here. I know this is where I am supposed to be. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else right now.
So therefore I am not homesick.
BUT...
I am really lonely.
Dear Wise Mother always told me I would enjoy travelling more if I went with someone, and now I know it is true...however, I also know that I am supposed to be here by myself (this time around!) and I know that when I look back on this it will be a fantastic "growing experience" and it will "build character" or something :P
But it's been hard since I haven't made any real friends yet, and I'm missing all of you.
*cue for sympathy...but please no tea. I have to pee enough as it is*

Dear Jill, Thanks for the update! You might not be homesick, but I certainly miss you (Jillsick just doesn't sound right) ... except that knowing that you are happy there makes me happy. Although I do wish you were not lonely at this time. I'm sure you will meet more people you can do things with as the time goes on. Love hearing about how you are doing!! Hugs!!!
Just because no one is commenting, doesn't mean no one is reading, Jill. Just remember. Lurkers are out there..they are REAL!! Keep on blogging! They may come out of hibernation one day!
Aw Jill!! I have to admit I haven't been reading your blog much lately. I've been trying to ween myself off of technology...I quit facebook! (Shocking). But, your posts have caused me to regress a little bit :) I'm so very excited for you. You've talked about going to Ireland for so long, and now look at you. You're amazing! Drink a cup o tea for me, m'dear. XO
