Three Hills

This is an excerpt from an e-mail I wrote to Matthew cause he can’t see the blog from his present location in China!

Hey ya'

Get this I'm sitting in the Wireless Steakhouse in Three Hills right now!  Go figure.  As if that isn't the strangest idea I've ever seen.  The two don't go together at all and honestly I don't give the place much of a chance but hey it 'served' my purpose for this morning.  It's -13 here right now but in true Prairie fashion it doesn't feel like it.  So I'm doing my requisite visiting through Three Hills.  I stayed with my Great Aunt last night and now I'm meeting some cousins for breakfast and then I'm off to visit with an old Missionary lady I knew when I was at Prairie.  It's weird being back here.  Even though I wasn't happy here I did have an awful lot of good times.  Ok, enough nostalgia.

I'm heading home on Thursday and I have to say I'm happy about it.  It is weird though because this trip has been really good.  I can't say I mind being on the road anymore.  Now that I've exercised my demons life is so much different.  Everyone is telling me how much I've changed and even I feel it.  The Baron tells me I just seem more comfortable in my own skin, my Parents tell me I'm not as caustic and mean, and others just can't seem to figure it out.  I have to say that I feel like I've lost something in a way as my humour sarcastic and mean as it used to be isn't there anymore in the same way.  It's actually hard to think of things to say to cut people down.  Maybe I'm just in a slump... although if I'm not I'm good with that.
