I have returned from the middle of nowhere. Right back into the family home.
Definitely mixed emotions.
I am now back somewhere where I have friends and family, but sometimes, that is the problem. Obligations. With a big, fat O. I can't just eat dinner in my own time. I can't just leave the laundry until the end of the month. I can't just leave dishes until the end of the day. I can't just eat take out when I don't want to cook. Being back in the family home, apparently means that I am running on someone else's time. Moving out isn't even an option at the moment, though I think I may explore that in the near future.
Being back in civilisation means that I can call up a friend to have coffee within the hour if I wanted. Not that I do, but it is a comforting thought.
Asian food around everywhere. That is always a plus. Wait, no, it's good Asian food around everywhere, that is a plus.
At times, I wish that I was okay with living alone in the country. Life is so much more simple there.
