Home Sweet Home. Just did back-to-back vacations and was gone for three and a half weeks, save one night in between! As much as I enjoyed it (and I do love to travel) I am very grateful to be back at home. There's something about sleeping in your own bed, with your own pillow, drinking your own freshly made coffee, that can't be beat. While I loved the 5-course meals on the cruise and the fried chicken and okra on our road trip, my body has not so much and I am looking forward to eating healthier, exercising regularly (although I walked a lot, exercise was sporadic) and, in general, getting back into a routine. With school right around the corner, that will be easier to do. Sometimes it takes a trip away to help us to appreciate the simple things in life- like soaking in a bubble bath in my own bathtub (I'm always scared of the germs that lie in wait in hotel room tubs) and sipping a glass of wine in my own backyard (while ruminating about all the work we need to do around the house). As I said in the beginning, Home Sweet Home.
