and now i need a milkshake

I keep trying to find a non-whiney way to compose what's been on my heart since the move. How much I miss everyone in Virginia and our life there, while also expressing how much I can't wait to get this first year in a new place (historically, not fun for me) out of the way so that I can fall in love with our lives again somewhere new. Every time I try, though, I just end up saving paragraph and paragraph of posts, rereading the words an hour later and deciding it's a piece of crap. Then I cry. And drink a milkshake. (HOW did I lose weight when we first moved to Virginia?? Where is THAT girl??)
