Happy Thoughts!

My mind is riddled with all sorts of crazy assed thoughts today. Good thoughts. Happy thoughts. Don’t know why that is exactly considering the state of things at the present moment, but it is what it is. You gotta roll with me, Henry.

Since making the decision to go home and stay there for a while, I am happy. Granted, I’m not getting to do what I had originally planned to do which was go to England for the month of November, but oh well. That ship will sail when it’s ready.

I am, however, looking forward to so many other things. I’ll still be taking the month of November off to celebrate my birthday and what nots. I’ll also be home for Halloween, my absolute favourite holiday. I can’t wait to get home and find out what all my friends are planning. Someone always throws a killer party and then there is the witches’ ball that I try to attend every year. I’ll have to figure out a costume which is always fun. I love to sew and that’ll keep me busy for a week. I wonder who I’ll be this year. Maybe a phantom or a fairy. Last year I was a vampire bat with pointy boots, wings and a pink wig. It was a good time…

Anyway….thinking about home has me excited! I haven’t been this exhilarated in such a long time. I guess Bethel ‘got’ to me or something. Thank god that feeling is fading and I’m getting back to my happy jolly bee-bopping self again.

I’ve sorta started a list in my head of the things I’m looking forward to doing when I get home. One of the big ones is my bed. I have missed my bed and when I get home, I’ll get to sleep in my own bed. I love my bed. I’ve also missed my kitchen so when I get home, I’ll get to cook in my own oven. OMG I’ll get to drive my car too. I have missed driving my car. I love my car!

Maybe I’ll get surprised and my dad will get me a motorcycle for my birthday since we had been talking about a certain type of motorcycle when we chatted yesterday.

I can’t wait to cuddle with the kitties and piggies. I can’t wait to watch movies on my television in my pjs. I am looking forward to being able to walk about the house naked and not worry that someone might come home and catch me. I’m going to make some soap and finish a quilt or two. I’m going to listen to heaps of music and just celebrate being home for like a week I think.

I’m going to start working out again so I’ll get to visit the best gym in the world everyday. I’m so excited! OH and then there is the hot tub. It needs to be fixed, but once that is done, I’m going to soak in it every single day.

Then I’ll be making some plans. Oh how I love to make plans. I’m going to be in NM through the beginning of the year, but then after that, who knows. I might go out on another travel job. I might start up that consulting company my father and I were talking about. I might go to England (I really want to go to England!!!). I might be teaching at the Uni again. Who knows. It’s going to be fun!

But until then, I’m just going to revel in being home and party for my birthday in November. December brings the Yule and I’ll have heaps to do for that.

And the list just goes on and on…I have 13 real days left here. Wow! The time has flown. It’s time to go home!
