Today I am happy. I arrived at work with a smile on my face (I can't tell you how longs its been since that has happened!). My big brother, A, flew back from Africa last night where he has been living for the past 2 years. He landed at 7am this morning and I chatted to him while I was on the way to work. I miss him loads when he is away and am very glad that he is back in this country to stay. I can't wait to see him in a couple of weeks.
Its funny though isn't it. My family have the capacity to wind me up, infuriate me, and hurt me more than most other people in the world. And yet I miss them so much when they are not there and love them so dearly. I wish they all lived much closer. Even though I have amazing friends and support where I live, there is something about being with my family. I can be completely myself and know that they will still love me. I can be child-like and needy and my parents will look after me. I feel safe and at home when I'm with them all. But I'm always ready to get home again after a couple of days!
And for R, if you are reading this over in Oz - I miss you like you wouldn't believe but am so very glad that you are off exploring the world and having an amazing time. I can't wait to see you in a years time xx
