Holy moly, is it really Tuesday??? I feel like I’m still in post-recovery from our trip to Vegas last week and we got home late Friday night! Yikes!!! So yes, planes and time are flying by in my little world. And just to clarify, I’m not still in post-recovery because we were getting all wild and crazy. Haha! In fact, quite the opposite was occurring. My days pretty much went “sleep, eat, read, drink, walk through hotels, sleep, and sleep”. Yes…I was catching up on some much needed sleep.
{how glam and girly is this room!}
So, there were no errands, laundry piles, 500 questions a day, toilets to clean, spills to wipe, papers to sign, or bills to pay. More and more the perfect vacation to me involves a lot of relaxing, little brain power, and a very slow pace. I know it’s not just me that gets hit like a ton of brick when getting home and all of the family life, activities, and responsibilities all seem so overwhelming. In all of it, I keep repeating, “I’m thankful, I’m thankful, I’m thankful.” For the chance to get away, to know our kids were in good hands, and to regain some focus….that’s the majorly contemplative side of me coming out. Happens every time after a vacation.
Needless to say, I’m getting back on track with the day to day and here on TTL. I’m excited for the projects that are in the works and the weeks ahead! The office is almost done, some furniture and DIY projects are being designed, built, and finished, and Spring and sunshine are right around the corner!
If you’ve made it this far, you are awesome and super gracious for tolerating my rambling today. THANK YOU for stopping by today and see you tomorrow for A Little of This, A Little of That. I can’t wait to introduce you to my next guest ~ you won’t want to miss it! She is truly wonderful and full of great ideas!
See you then!

Welcome home! So glad to hear you were able to get some well-deserved rest! It’s amazing how now that we are older and sleep is considered a very precious thing! Back in the day our parents had to beg us to go to sleep…lol!
