Sharon Lauer visited today. It was great to see her...a visit from "the other" life. Though Sharon is likely to be part of this York stage since her parents live, literally, just down the street. All the same, it was nice to see a familiar and friendly face. Seeing her reminded me that I don't really miss Pittsburgh. I've been frustrated here..and overwhelmed..but I have not been "homesick" or longing to get back to something. If anything, I am looking ahead to the next thing...wondering what that will be. So, I think that's a good thing.

I attended a service at the York Unitarian Church yesterday. What a great place. Everyone was so friendly and interested to hear what brought me there. I am eager to do more there. It was so nice to feel connected to a group...to feel surrounded by people like me...like us. It has been a long time since we've felt that.
