It's only 2 years, right?

We've been in Indiana now for about a month and I'm going to be honest, I don't love it or even like it very much. I apologize if you do love it.

When we found out we were moving here I was disappointed and not excited. But, I had never lived in the midwest and felt like I was treating it like a different country. Everyone was telling me to calm down, it wouldn't be bad, it's just like anywhere else, blah blah blah. Well, everyone was wrong! I totally feel like I'm living in a foreign country. The way I had pictured Indiana in my head is actually better than reality.

Maybe it would help if we met some people to hang out with, Joshua had some kids to play with, we had an awesome ward... but nope. I spend my days a little depressed and sad thinking about our life in Utah.

Okay, well I just had to get that out. No more negativity. I feel better just saying how I feel.

I felt the same way when I 1st got here. I had no friends, I was not working. To many things changed all at once. But as I gave it time it is slowly getting better! I hope it does for you too!

I'm so sorry Lea. Its hard to be in a new place. Every time I have moved I have told myself that roots don't start to move away from the branch for a few months...

We miss you-- Moving is so hard and we do have such an awesome ward! Hope it gets easier for you.
