For the record, I am counting this as Day 17, because I'm on Pacific Time. (Home for Thanksgiving! Wee!)
It's weird to be "home" again. The things in the house look like they always had...but it just feels older. I feel like things should be sepia-toned around here.
As we were getting ready for bed, Jamie made a beeline for his favorite part of my childhood room. My diary. I know I have already referenced it before...don't remember how or when. But today, I will share some of Jamie's favorites.

Dear Diary,
Sorry I didn't write in you for so long. Jonathan [a boy I liked and who had been mentioned in many previous diary entries] left the school, but I have a new boyfriend which I know likes me. Barry Fam. I like him too, he's nice. Chasqui [my dog] is fine and I'm going to move on Saturday. This house is huge!
[In big cursive letters at the bottom of the page] I Love Barry!
Love, Melissa

Dear Diary,
Today was a fair day by accident. Barry threw a football. But I kinda like Ryan Agee now.
Love, M.U.
I was a fickle little 10 year old...
