It's been a whirlwind. What can I say? I've been terribly delinquent in my postings, and have almost entirely abandoned my previous site for this, much easier, troglodyte friendly blog site. God knows I was putting Mr. Almost Poshlust at loose ends trying to have him publish and photograph and web-manage and all those seemingly terrible time consuming things.
So, I'm trying my unsteady hand at doing this myself, vaulting me and my record player into the 21st century. *smiling*
To recap - October has been such an adventurous month. We've just unpacked from our wonderful trip to India, finally setting all the curios down on the shelves and the suitcases back in the storage room. I can't believe we're back here in the -15 degree weather when we left in +35. It just doesn't seem too terribly fair.
We didn't buy our little loft in the city center, where we already had the floorplans and the furniture all picked out.. We were in a battle with time and exhaustion as we were leaving for India, and it seems that that all worked out for the best.
I forget every time I go to India just how much I love it there, how much it seems to mirror my soul and my mind.. when I haven't even looked in the reflection yet. I miss it more and more everytime I return.. So, after a very long and tearful talk with Mr. Almost Poshlust, we've decided that I should be off traveling there for 8 months, working the kinks out of my brain and my soul and doing that horribly cliched act of "working things out" and "finding myself".
(Not, as the rumor has it in the office, because Mr. Almost Poshlust has recently gotten himself a fetching new hairdo and swish pair of spectacles and feels he should be moving on up, and kicking me on out. Cruel office people.)
Therefore, this January, I'll (hopefully) be departing for India for 8 months, to volunteer and work and do all those lovely things that should nurture my mind and my soul. Then, back here just in time for winter and for school to start and me to go and get a higher education. With any luck at least.
Those are most of the updates I suppose. We've been having a fantastic time, living up our two months, shopping and kissing and eating good meals and generally having as much contact as we can. Life is so beautiful right now, I could burst. For the first time in a long time.. I'm happy. Given, I've had to dust that card off in my emotional rolodex it's been so long.. But there it is, however faint... Happy.
Love Always!

I agree....but a sluck would have it, itseems that no matter where you find yourself Ms. Poshlust, family are always close at hand...you'll do fine and go far. See *everything*...do *everything* (well, within reason I suppose)...and in the end you'll have kindred spirits all over the world!
