Going back home

Well I'm going home,
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I'm not running from.
No, I think you got me all wrong.
I don't regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces are getting old,
So I'm going home.
Well I'm going home.

Had a long week this week. First of all I want to address that I had a lovely time in Volterra and enjoyed staying with Renata immensely. I found friendship with her that I haven't found in anyone in my last 550 years. I acted like a teenager and let myself relax completely free of most worry which I never and I mean never do. But all good things must come to an end. Maggie decided to run off with Felix in the midst of my fun and not return to me for well over 24 hours. Luckily I had Santiago and Demetri to find them for me and bring them back. With relief finally to know she has no attraction to Felix and humor that he has attraction to Renata, I was able to clear my head after a couple hunts and a drive in my beautiful car.

Back home I spent some much needed bonding with my husband Liam. It is painful to be away from him longer than a few hours but it did not hurt so bad with Renata there. Maggie started asking permission to go places like a teenager which made me feel utterly guilty of course because she is free to do what she pleases and she is not a child. But she did call me her mother 4 times in the past 4 days which has made my heart soar. So maybe speaking with Felix for a night wasn't so bad but I'll never admit that besides just this once.

I've been reading Jane Austen today which has put me in a loving mood. I am very peaceful today which with my stress doesn't happen as often as it should. I will be going to see the Dean in Belfast to see if I can pick up a position at his school which I am so longing to teach again I've missed it very much over the past few years. Many aspirations lately. On a side note Liam has been quietly doing something today that is driving me batty! I wish he would be more expressive sometimes but I suppose that is why I adore him.
