Adjusting to life back at home

I felt weird coming home. I was definitely ready to be back but I missed everyone last night (mostly all the girls) =) But as soon as I saw my house it looked huge and when I walked in I immediately tried to picture everything I owned underwater, but I couldn't even imagine.

I went on the computer but for some reason I didn't want to go on IM or facebook, and still haven't. And when I laid in my bed, it felt so good and I fell asleep almost immediately. But before I went to sleep I took the time to thank God for all that I have and how fortunate I am.

Seeing my prayer partner and all my friends (including grown ups & parents,
family) I was overwhelmed with happiness and just wanted to hug everyone. It was really cool to know that all those people had been praying for us. It was hard to leave the airport because I didn't want to leave everyone. I haven't had many conversations yet besides with my parents & siblings but through the blog they got to know a lot of stuff I did already but I know there will be a lot of more conversations over the weeks/ months to come.

And I am especially excited to share some things with some of my friends. I am hoping that when I go back to school people will see a change in me.. Today I don't know what to do with myself. I feel weird just laying around doing nothing. But in my head I am still going over all the things that happened in N.O. and trying to let it all sink in, because it still hasn't quite done that. It went by so fast.

Well, I can't wait to see everyone again, I just miss everyone. And I have already had circumstances at home where I used those 3 rules. I think it's harder to use them at home but it makes me feel better to use them. I have really learned to like putting others before myself.
I feel just so excited for life right now.
