diagnosis- homesick

After the nice break with a trip to yellowstone and rafting with the family, and then lots of sitting around, I was getting to the point where I was feeling it was time to go back to Utah and get some new things in there. I was starting a kayak class and it had been awhile since I'd hit any of the martial arts classes. I wasn't halfway to Utah, however, when I had the intense desire to turn around. I did not want to go back to Utah. I wanted to stay and play with the family some more. I haven't felt like that in a long time. I usually get really irritable if I don't make my bimonthly pilgrimage to the Idaho/Oregon border, but usually I'm good for awhile after I've been there. Not so this time. I got to Burley and, I'll admit, started to cry and wanted to turn around. Now, Burley Idaho can make people cry spontaneously sometimes, but I don't think that was it. I've been thinking about moving to Idaho lately, and decided when I get my blackbelt it will be time to go. Now I'm not sure if I can be that patient. Especially since my wrist problems have been interferring with judo and it may be longer now before they are willing to promote me. I've started looking for a place to live and perusing jobs. I think something decided perhaps the time is right now. I counted this morning how long until my next drive home (and that 7 hour trip seems to get harder and harder each time. One factor would probably be how many times I've done it). I've been given labor day weekend off, so Oregon - here I come again! That will probably be when the hospital census picks up again and we actually have patients again. Right now we have 1 in the ICU. mine. who is due for another check right now. Yes, it is so slow I blogged at work. and there's still 6 hours to go.
