Question # 7


Question #7 Have I made a home for myself, or am I still waiting for my "real life" to begin? I already know I don't have to be married or mortgaged or otherwise permanently commited to a nest, so what's keeping me from saying this is my "real life" right now?

Good question, I do think I have made a home for myself, yes, I love my apartment, its not my permanent home but anywhere that Trav and Carmela are - that's where my home is, they are my family. As far as buying a house -I'm not sure if I want to stay in Minneapolis for the next 5 years - and we can't afford it right now.
I do believe that I am waiting for a few things to begin though, I think when I am done with school and I have a career established - that's part of it. Also, when I have kids - that's the other part.
I've always thought of myself as a mother - I swear sometimes I feel like in a different life or in a different dimension, I was a mother who lost a child. Even my body is shaped as though I have already had a child. Its kind of weird.
And because my job right now isn't in the feild I want to have a career in, I feel like this is temporary - like I'm just doing this until...
