so, i haven't really had the time to blog since the move back to floriduh. i also had to bring my mac into apple 3 days ago to get repaired. the magnetic strip for the charger is faulty. glad i am still on warranty. woo.
a bit of a rewind- having my mom in prague was amazing. we ate great. we got to get out of prague and see amazing nature. i really couldn't have asked for a better last week in prague. also, my mom got to tango in an amazing gazebo in a vineyard. i think i'm most thankful for that. she had a blast and we had so much fun drinking wine and watching her in her element. so thankful and so happy. so blessed. i'd add some photos, but they're on my computer. maybe another time. after packing up and cleaning our room(which happened fast!), we spent our last day drinking coffee at the globe, riding pedal boats with wine and cherries, and then going out for our last nite with our closest friends we made. lemme tell you, it's tough as hell to leave a country after only 10 months when you feel like you're just getting used to things, the hang of things, making friends, feeling truly comfortable. but that's how it goes.
airport stress sucks. tummy aches, head aches, teary eyes. well- we landed safely friday nite and ever since then have been on the go. we got to stay in a nice hotel for the weekend which was a nice way to ease us in. into what? i'm not too sure. so much uncertainty. but things are coming along. i'm having a really good day. i went to the seagate spa today and got my old job back. it was welcoming and reassuring. i'll be starting on thursday. matt starts work tomorrow. back into the flow of making money, starting over, getting back on our feet. we also have been apartment hunting. the first one we saw today was amazing and i feel like it is a winner already. i'm staying with my brother and christalyn(a bestfriend)right now and they live right by downtown atlantic avenue. i walked to work and it only took 10 minutes. the place we looked at today is by the blue anchor and would only take me 5 minutes to walk to work. ideal for me... since i don't have a car right now. we're keeping our hunt in this vicinity. i envision something great. hopefully we'll be done couchsurfing in about 2 to 4 weeks. :)
i am definitely sad about prague. i balled hard on the 10 hour flight back. just for 5 minutes, but it was emotional. i find it to be so surreal where we are now and what we're doing. it's hard to explain. it's weird to think 10 months went by and we're back already. it's also weird to spend time with family and friends and it kind of seems like it wasn't really that long ago.
so, i'm missing our friends back in prague, missing our lush bedroom and the gorgeous streets we'd walk on.... but now i guess i have to appreciate this ridiculous humidity, palm trees, beach, pools, and numerous restaurants... ohhh and of course friends and family who are really welcoming and sweet.
ah... eve abroad no longer makes sense. what to name it now...
