I am sorry... It is okay to be homesick. I was actually thinking of you being homesick the other day when I was in Cleveland. I don't know what triggered it, but I was thinking about you....

I didn't know you don't see stars in Alaska. But even though I'm only in Oregon, I so very much miss the Arizona sky -- there's just nothing like it. I’m sorry you’re homesick.

I'm sorry you're homesick and I bet today doesn't make it any better. ((((hugs)))) I'm sure you'll find new friends up there to help ease the loss of your other friends. I'm sorry you miss your mom and grandma. Any way you could fly them up for a visit? Not having the sunshine would bother me most of all. I love the sun and love the extra boost I get from it. Can you purchase a sun lamp to help ease the loss of the light? I was just thinking of you Kate and came over to your blog to ask how you were doing up there and I find this.

And despite being paid to go there, and gee whiz golly," I got to move to a place many people only dream about, or pay big bucks to go to" it still sucks. Everyone thinks you are on some great vacation but really your life just got moved somehere else, and generally , more inconvienient!!! You will find the good things, and it will get better (but it might take a while) so hang in there!! whinge all you want (and I DO know what that word means since I spent 3 years in Australia) It is HARD to move far way from friends and family.

All these English people are lovely, we're learning so much, seeing so many new things, yes, of course, but I would like a bright, blue-sky day and, you know, some turkey with stuffing! Happy Thanksgiving, and I hope you get to enjoy some of the good aspects of the move soon, as well as suffering through the inevitable sad parts.

Arizona to Alaska, that's quite a change. You're entitled to feel homesick. I hope the holidays add some cheer. Aw, I was wondering how you were feeling about things.

I don't think I'll ever stop being homesick, but I do realize that this place is my home now, and I'd probably miss California just as much if I left.
