around here
i always think i keep up with what’s around here and then i look to see when the last post was and… well, it’s been a while
i still have so many summer break pictures to share
monument valley, grand canyon, sedona, vegas, panama city beach….
but as much as i’d like to stay in vacation mode, life just keeps moving forward
these days faster than ever before
at the end of this month summer will be over and it will officially be fall
i enjoy fall
but i dread what comes after it
it will also be four years since we moved from miami to asheville
four years!
it’s hard for me to believe it’s been that long
i still miss our miami life in the red house with the pool and our dear friends near
perhaps i don’t miss miami as much as i miss us in miami
and regardless of how good life is here, how great the house we live in is (we have paid our price) and how many friends we have, i still feel landlocked, like i don’t belong and want to head towards the ocean just about daily
asheville makes me feel the loneliest i have ever felt
it’s a feeling i can’t seem to shake off
even after four years
thanks for listening friends
hope you are all having a good week so far
flowers, flowers and more flowers. i don’t think i could (or would want to) live in a world without flowers. which makes winter harder than it already is
