I was born in Somalia. I got married at a young age. I am close with my aunt. I just started a new job. I am a construction worker. I'm building a new office downtown. I'm learning new skills on the job. I have a wife. She  is depressed. she is having difficulty adjusting to life in the United States. She is homesick. My wife is from Somalia. She's not used to going to the gym. She loves the food from our home country. I do not have a pet.
I have short hair. I eat when I am bored. I go to the gym often. I enjoy the treadmill and rowing machine at the gym. I have 2 dogs. I walk my dogs in the downtown sometimes. I  moved in the US 10 years ago. I have never tried Somali food. I live in a house. I support pet adoption.
The new job is going great. What new skill are you learning at work? I'm really paying attention to the architecture and how everything is fitting together as we pour concrete and set beams.  It's interesting to see such a large project from start to finish  I bet that it is really cool seeing something be built from the ground up and being able to learn all of the new skills along the way. Yes!  So different than what I'm used to seeing in my country.  I'm loving it.  How's your gym routine going? My gym routine is going great. I love running for about hour on the treadmill 4 days  a week. It really lets me clear my head. My wife and I have started walking outside together.  It has helped her depression a lot.  We've met some neighbors and are starting to meet with them. The exercise is great for us. Yes, they say that exercise is great for the mind and body. Something else that might help your wife with being home sick, is maybe make some of her favorite foods from her hometown.  That is a great idea.  We have looked in some grocery stores and can find some things, but there's some items we just can't find in our area.  Maybe have to look online. Yes, usually if I can not find something in store, I can usually find it on line. Or even try calling her family and see if you could use some kind of substitution for things..  Great idea.  We talk to her family all the time.  I don't know why we didn't think about that.  Sometimes when you focus on trying to help someone you forget that the smallest thing might help just a little bit. With her depression maybe get her a dog or a cat the keep her company. I know that my dogs help me so much.
