Well, the first thing isn't really a thing. It's a someone. We've been lucky enough to have Elyssa with us for the past two summers and summer without Elyssa just doesn't seem the same :-( I have to do all of my crafty projects alone and don't have anyone who will watch Legally Blonde with me. She recently sent me some pictures and, as always, I find it hard to believe that this is the same person as the little girl I met almost three years ago. It's hard to believe that in a few months, she'll be starting seventh grade. And will be turning 13!! She's becoming such a smart and beautiful (and tall!) young woman and we're so proud of her!
My deodorant. My favorite kind is not the easiest to find in the states and impossible to find here.
Lancome products. Not carried by our PX.
Dunkin Donuts. This is something that Jerry's going to be missing very soon, as we're on the last of the coffee beans that I brought to Germany.
Receiving phone calls from friends. While I can call whoever I want as part of our unlimited calling plan, it's just too expensive to make calls from the states to me. So the phone rarely rings.
Best Buy. I miss working there (I miss working period) and I really miss the great DVD deals. We love building our DVD collection but we just can't do it at PX prices. Don't get me wrong, the PX has great prices for most things, and it's tax-free shopping. But Best Buy kicks PX butt in the movie pricing department.
A strong dollar. The weak dollar makes doing anything on the economy extraordinarily expensive and makes it difficult to take advantage of being in another country, in terms of travel and tourism.
Romano cheese. I'm guessing this exists somewhere. I just need to look harder and learn the German word for Romano.
Mostly little things (except Elyssa), but things I miss.
Oh, I see. You can call whoever you want with your unlimited calling plan. But you haven't called me. Which means you don't want to call me. Because you don't like me. I am a downy clowny because Hev don't love me!

Let me know if you ever want me to ship you anything! I wish I could afford to ship Elyssa...but I have to say I'd have to be selfish and ship her to me first! I miss that girl too!
ReplyDeleteWhat about me? Don't you miss me?!?
