Today was supposed to be the day!

18 June 2012

My younger sister was supposed to come to visit me and now I don’t think she will and it makes me sad.  She and her boyfriend broke up and I just wish I could be there for her, with her, to like drink wine.  But since I can’t I thought I had convinced her to come up here for two or three weeks and just take a small break from her life.  She was supposed to be here today but I talked to her yesterday and she said she can’t come up until next weekend.  Which makes me sad.

I’ve said since she agreed to come for a visit, that I’d believe it when I saw it. And I was right to think that.

I just want to see her. And I wish she would move up here.  She currently lives in a town without any of our family and I feel like it would do her a world of good to live closer to either me or my older sister.  She is a bartender and we live 5 minutes away from a huge parting college…she could make some serious money and finish school at the same time.  Live in our house rent free until she gets back on her feet.

But I don’t want to get into any of this too quickly with her, but I feel like it has to happen quickly or it won’t happen at all.  This could be her opportunity to really make a change in her life for the better.

When I was in college I got in a bit of trouble and had to move out of my dorm room.  I moved in with my aunt who lived 25 minutes away from my college and I think that whole experience really changed my life in a way I never could have imagined back them.  It helped me to grow up and to see that my life was more than just partying.

I want that experience for my younger sister. I want her to do more with her life…and I want her to be happy and I know she isn’t right now.
