I am trying to be mindful. To not be stressed/fear the unknown. To take things slow and not do anything when I get that feeling that tells me “you need to be doing something productive.” The hardest part about this time for me is feeling lonely. My boyfriend’s (my rock, my biggest support) job has relocated him to a city 3 hours a way during the weekdays. He comes home on the weekend and I get so sad when he is gone. At the same time it is wonderful when we reunite. But it is difficult for me not to be lonely, anxious and depressed when he is away and I am stuck at home, not able to do a lot. And most of my friends are so busy with work. And I have 4 more weeks to go! Trying to look at this as a learning experience but it is difficult to keep focused on that.
