After being uprooted from my close friends in Las Vegas and moving further away from our families in AZ, I decided it's finally time for me to accept that this is the way things are so I need to DEAL WITH IT and get on with my life. We moved to Parker, CO 6 months ago and thinking I was dealing with it, I seemed to stop all connection with anyone and anything (my blog) that would remind me of what I left. Although I looked forward to the change in scenery and reuniting the family (remember Rich was working here for five months before we finally got moved), I have found it alot harder than I ever imagined. I have always considered myself a strong person but this has made me wonder how strong. I have a better understanding of depression and feel for those who suffer on a regular basis. I also realize how much my family means to me and what a good support group I had in Vegas. Jill, Janette, Skye, Lani, Jaycee, to name a few. I miss you guys terribly!
In fact what sparked this "dealing with it" decision was when I looked on Jill's blog today and saw what I had missed over the last six month not only because of the move but because I wouldn't look at anyone's blog since then either. Of course the tears began rolling(and haven't stopped yet) and I suddenly picked up the phone and dialed her number. It was so good to just hear her voice and hear her reassure me that I could do this. Thank you Jill! So I am committing to getting back on track with my blog and keeping in touch. My family and Rich's will be ever so grateful too. I will begin bringing everyone up to speed of our last six months in Colorado in my next few posts. And Jill.....THIS BLOGS FOR YOU!!!

Well woman, I'm glad to hear it!! It's about time you realize that life really doesn't get any better than this . . . and yes, this is it! I love you and I am sorry you have been going through all of those emotions, welcome to my world of anti depressants:) I don't know how to blog, therefore, you need to get a facebook . . . much easier for those who have computer issues!
ReplyDeleteOh Camille...we sure love you and miss you guys! So sorry this has been a hard transition... now my tears are rolling as I read your post and have complete empathy as we embark on about the same journey (leaving fam & friends to go to a new place for hubby's job...terrified...so excited to reunite the fam and just "be together"...not a fan of a billion life changes, etc.). On these hard days, lets just keep remembering the answers we've had to prayers and find comfort in the fact that we know we're doing what we're supposed to be doing and where we're supposed to be doing it. This seems to help a little! xoxoxoxox
ReplyDeleteGood to know your tears are still flowing too! I miss you! You can do it. I remember you telling me once that Rich was all you need. It so true. Hang in there. Thanks for the blog. I love love love you!
ReplyDeleteCamille, It's been so good to hear from you. I can relate in a totally different way. I've had to change my whole situation also. Hard things are required of us, so we may as well make the best of them. Sam talks about Cade everyday still. He thinks he is his twin. I am engaged to Dave, it will be a big change a change I never thought I would ever have to make but. But it will be great and we all need to plan a get together. Miss you tons, I like facebook also its easier for me.
ReplyDeleteLove ya Lani
I know we weren't close, but I wanted to say I'm sorry it's been such a rough transition for you. I hope things start to look brighter!
