So, I've been on vacation the past 11 days. I got back to Manhattan today and tried to get back into the swing of things. I haven't been able to get much sleep these past few days. Sleeping on a couch compared to a bed isn't such a good thing when you have back problems. Also, the stress of being at home but not being able to do anything. I'm 23 years old and I felt like I was grounded; unable to go anywhere or do anything unless I was with my family. I had friends I wanted to see and other things to do, plus getting sick didn't help. Then I learned that I no longer have a home in Dodge. I have no place I can run to and hide. Now I have to choose whether I go see my mom in Iowa or do I go see my friends who I count as family back in Dodge. This was not supposed to be how things went. Why can't one thing seem to go right or how I plan? I need something to go my way!
