Home again

It's been a couple weeks since I last posted about our arriving at the in laws for a mini *stay*cation.  It was a nice two weeks to get away from the rush of the city and constant doorbell and phone ringing of friends trying to play with my kids. 

What I will miss:

• being far from city things such as lights, sirens, traffic, and rushing around
• the peaceful mornings in front of the fire place with my coffee and thoughts
• never worrying or wondering about the kids when they are outside
• the quiet... all the time

What I am glad to return to:

• my washing machine and dryer
• my bed
• high speed internet
• a pot of ground coffee (we only used Keurig cups while away)
• having Sarah in her own room
• the convenience of getting groceries quickly
• routine (it went out the window while away)

Time away is always good and I think it makes us appreciate our own space.  I love my house and the home it provides for us.
