back home to ny

So, I'm home now in NY - and I am still getting used to it. It is strange to not put plastics in Gelbesacks and to drive an automatic on much wider roads. It is strange to not see farms and forests everywhere and to have a store only 3 mins away instead of 10. It is crazy to be with my family again and not be surrounded by 37 people all the time. I am sad to be away from Germany but am glad to see my family again. I got to hang out with my brother tonight - we went to a movie which was fun. I am all unpacked -soon to tear up my walls and pack things up again - more permanently this time to move to another state and not another country. It is strange to think that in less than 2 months I will be married. It is only by God's help that I will have the money, the time and the energy to get the task needed done the next few months. Even just adjusting is an adventure. I am thankful for friends and family who are able to help and are very supportive at this time. Life is an adventure....non stop. Who knows what will be next?
