A blog about what daily life was really like in the Middle East and the daily ramblings of an ex-pat mum. That's how I started the blog. We are now home, so I'm just going to continue with life here. I am a deeply committed Christian. I love to teach about and share my faith so you'll see some of that on the blog as well. Got a comment? Please feel to comment at the end of a post. May our Creator's peace be upon you.

Feeling adrift

Well, my house is looking 'normalish'. The dining room is loaded with stuff I pulled out of boxes and now am going, "What do I do with this?"  Other than that and a bunch of pictures needing to be hung, things are settling in to a routine.

I've joined a women's Bible study group. I wanted to connect with some other women, I am in the middle of trying to figure out 'what next?' and it was something to do.  Plus, it's a Bible study. Nuff said.

I am finding it tricky to relate to women around me.  Six years ago before going overseas, I could jump into pretty much any church group and either 'fit in', 'blend in', or actually even feel comfortable depending on the group. Things have changed.

So......what next? I can't make people change, I'm not going to 'forget' the experiences I have had overseas, so....what do I do?

I'm hoping that as I settle in to my new surroundings, I begin to feel less adrift.  And, I'm posting this in case there is someone else out there who is also going through these feelings.

Peace.
