Vienna

Today started out a little rough. It was just one of those days when you are in a funk, and there is nothing anybody can do about it. I honestly didn't know what was going on. Then I took a nap with my sweet 4- month- old and life was good again. I was tired and didn't realize it. After nap time, I looked at some pictures from home-Vienna. I was so excited to see familiar places. Then it just so happened that one of my best friends from Vienna was on facebook the same time I was. She called me, and we talked for about 45 minutes. She is a friend I have had since my childhood and someone I definitely consider a sister. We talked and talked about our kids. I haven't met hers, and she hasn't met mine, but it's like we have. I always get homesick after phone calls like the one I just had. But you know what? Instead of getting depressed this time around, I am going to be thankful to have tasted a bit of my Austrian side today, to have talked German, to have laughed with one of the best laughers I know, and to have seen a city that I consider home.
