Ah-Ha!
I just had another Ah-ha moment. Thomas has been gone for the last week and I think we were all a little worried about me and how I would handle it. I kept telling everyone that I do like being alone sometimes and that I like myself so it's not so bad! Well, that didn't happen this past week while Thomas was gone. I went out two nights to get dinner with new friends and I had a work party on Friday night which was actually a lot of fun. I was very busy! My ah-ha moment came today. Maybe it was good for me to have Thomas be gone. My safety net was away and I had to do things on my own. I had to go downtown and meet up with people all three nights. Something that I did on a regular basis in Nebraska, but not here because I am so timid and shy.
I already have a few evenings planned next week too. Are things really starting to look up?? Only time will tell.
Thomas has two more weeks of military and then I am off to Nebraska. It's going to be just like old times, which isn't necessarily the best. Not seeing him everyday is no fun, but what are you going to do.
