Waiting

It's been a lonely season. It seems as if the whole city is on holiday during the month of August. The Unversity has been abandoned. Craig goes to work and some days does not talk to another soul. I stay home and unpack and do not talk to another soul. We call to various organizations we'd liek to join only to hear the message "We'll be meeting again in September".

I am glad we had our year in Virginia, for it has given me hope that we WILL make friends for I know that we DO build community. It will get better. But man, oh man, the waiting is tough.
