For DrJ

Recently DrJ got the good news that she will be able to visit Australia for three months starting near the end of November. Going home for a while soon myself I got to wondering about what she would be looking forward to about going home. Would the must-do-whilst-home lists be at all alike? My trip isn’t nearly as long and the culture clash is much smaller but we seem to be similar type people – as much as a blog can let you know that sort of thing.

There are a lot of things I’m looking forward to but most of them revolve around seeing people that I miss a great deal. My family are at the top of the list and Roland’s family too (boy did I luck out on the in-laws). Friends come to mind next: Jason, Henry and Katie, Ryan and Laura, Chad and Christina, Shannon and Ronda, Veronica and Joe, Doc, and Alicia (and all the babies/children that go with the appropriate people). I’m also excited to meet Jason’s new lady Jocelin.

Some of the other things I’m looking forward to are sort of random bits and pieces. And I keep thinking of more all the time:
Eating at G & L and Big Apple Bagel (Roland is really looking forward to BW3)
Thanksmas – Where you get what you want
Christmas with family
The New Years shindig
Wearing jeans
Hearing my Dad play the organ
Seeing Anne’s new house
Looking out the big picture windows at my parent’s house and seeing almost nothing but trees.

Hmmm...I wonder if Kate Leggett would be visiting near the holidays.Maybe I should email her and find out.
