I'm Home

This just feels so good in every way. I spent my first evening, last night, with my P and our group of close friends at Edo for dinner. Then P and I had brunch this morning with my sisters and their husbands at Le Pain Quotidien at Marina Crescent. It was a gorgeous day, and it felt good to wear a T-shirt without a jacket. When we arrived at the crescent area and I got my first glimpse of the blue sea, my heart skipped and I felt so sublimely happy and relaxed. After brunch P and I spent the day just running around town, having fun, talking, laughing, and making up for the past three months since we last saw each other. I've been on a natural high since my plane landed. The weather is beautiful, the skies are big and blue, and boy am I excited to hit the chalet next weekend! And I'm surrounded by the people I love most in this world (except I still haven't seen my Dad because he's out of town and coming back later in the week). Aaaahhh...home!

I love it here. It's just such a different world. The longer I live in London, the more I realize that, no matter how much we complain about it here (and sure, there definitely is a lot to complain about), we really have a good thing going when it comes to living in Kuwait. There are a million and one things that bug me, that drive me insane, that I would love to change if only they'd make me president - but then again, everyone feels that way about their country. At least we can escape to chalet when things get too much to handle...
