I am here...although I don't know if I have arrived. Some days I feel stranded in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, other days I marvel at the paradise that I call my life. Welcome to my ramblings, reflections, and obsessive- compulsive tendencies

...about a year

that was then.... ...this is now
it has been a year. we moved to bermuda on december 29th, 2008. everyone told us when we moved here that it would take a year before we felt okay about our move. it is official. we have completed our requisite year.
do we feel bermudian? not even close.
is it beginning to feel like home? it is getting closer.

i knew it would be emotional and hard and exciting and huge. it was.
i thought it would be the right move for our family. it has been.
i hoped we would be closer and calmer and happier and saner. we are (well, sanity is something i expect we will always strive for).
i expected we would miss our families. we do.
