Today I had my first 'oh shit' moment about moving across the country. After waking up to my car being towed(literally about 200 feet away and 15 minutes before I got there) and ticketed this morning, I got back to my house to get ready for work. When I went outside to start my car, it wouldn't start. I came back inside in a fury of lateness screaming 'My car won't start'. So my sisters came outside and helped me start the car. I enjoyed a nice simple moment of having two people that know and love me to help me do something stupid like start my car. But then I began to seriously consider the fact that I'm moving 2000 miles away to a place where I literally know ONE person. Additionally I considered that I will not live with that person and he won't be in my house when I need someone to help me start my car. My mind took over and I made a list of the trillion things that I will miss so much about being home. Irreplaceable things.
Ultimately I know that I do have so much to look forward to in Laramie. But even more imporantly, I need to appreciate the things that I have right here and right now.
