My hubby is down in Christchurch for the national civil engineering conference.
Although I enjoy the solitude, it does feel a little lonely because there isn't someone here to talk to me if I wanted...sigh... I miss you honey...
My hubby mentioned a while ago that he's surprised that I haven't felt homesick. I think its mainly due to me having my hubby by my side and also because I know I'll be going down to Christchurch at the end of April. However, thinking back to Easter weekend, I think I had a spout of homesickness. After whinging about it, on Good Friday, me and my hubby went for a walk in the early evening. At the start, although I asked for the walk, I also felt a bit depressed. At the time, I couldn't explain why but after coming home and thinking about it, I think i was homesick. I missed how my hubby and I used to drive to Hagley Park and walk around the botanical garden and even play hide and seek. Being here is Auckland, it felt very foreign, especially since the walk to the park was a bit of a work out in itself. When we got to Auckland Domain, although it is nice, it's not Hagley Park... So there you have it, my first significant homesick moment.
I would like to add that despite being homesick. My hubby managed to cheer me up by playing one of his silly games - acorn war. Hubby, if you're reading this, I'm sorry I was all happy happy joy joy form the beginning of our walk but I did enjoy the whole experience :)
