What a Month!

Oh, what a month it has been! It all began on July 14th, the first day of my vacation, and ended this weekend when I arrived back home from Minnesota. During that time, I traveled through eight different states:

1. Nebraska

2. Colorado

3. Texas

4. Iowa

5. Missouri

6. Illinois

7. Minnesota

8. Wisconsin

During those four weeks, I only worked a total of five days and had one weekend free. Unfortunately, during that free weekend, I got super sick with a nasty bacterial infection that had me on 2000 mg of antibiotics daily. 

To say that I am exhausted is an understatement. I finally made it home yesterday, about 3 pm, Friday, May 11th, and as soon as I walked in the door, I put on my house dress and sat in my chair until I got tired. It was so so nice to sleep in today, drink coffee leisurely for hours in my pajamas, and not have to do anything or go anywhere. It was especially great sleeping in my own bed.

That's not to say that I didn't have a great time or a lot of fun, because I did...on both counts. I wouldn't change the past month for anything because, honestly, we all need to be active and have adventure in our lives. 

At the end of the day, though, there is no place like home. And I'm extremely happy to be home and be lazy today.

Of course, I'll be making plenty of posts about my busy month, but first, I need to finish my last two posts from my trip to the UK last fall.

Until then, friends, enjoy your weekend. I know I sure am.
