homesickness

I don't feel homesick very often but today as I was riding my bike to work in the rain and wind and hail and a branch that was hanging over the bike path whipped me in the face, I missed my home in Canada.

I miss the comforts of my house, the convenience of owning a vehicle,  my friendly neighborhood and my trusted circle of friends.
I miss being able to express myself and articulate what I am thinking and feeling and being able to understand everything around me.
I miss being able to afford things and being qualified for higher paid employment.
I miss my Zumba and yoga classes and my book club.
I miss my family that is still in Canada.
I miss a lot of things.

On the bright side... Rus and Dean will be back here in 13 days!
