		<description><![CDATA[I loved being back in the States.  I loved visiting my favorite places back home and seeing my friends and family.  It was great to eat the food I soooo missed and shop at familiar stores.
But funnily enough I felt like a &#8220;visitor&#8221;.  I thought that once I went back home that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s Thanksgiving back home and I&#8217;m missing it!  We would have had turkey and the works here but a small turkey cost about $40 and it wasn&#8217;t worth it when we need to save all our (electronic) pennies for our house.  We hope to do Thanksgiving here next year in our own house, God willing.

		<description><![CDATA[While watching reruns of Desperate Housewives this afternoon while LJ napped and while making lists of things we need to do once we move into our new house, I realized something. Back home (at least the part of NJ that I&#8217;m from), it&#8217;s common to sit in the front lawn while the kids play. We [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This morning I got an email from someone back home complaining that it was snowing.  7 inches (about 18cm) and still falling hard and thick.  After reading the email, I got a pang of jealousy while MJ was relieved he wasn&#8217;t there.  While I don&#8217;t LOVE snow, I don&#8217;t HATE it either. [...]]]></description>
