While I’m home from a vacation to
the Pacific Northwest, I’m afraid I’m mentally not quite home yet. I’ve been
unpacking for two days, and there may be another day or two of unpacking
ahead. I had many boxes of things left up north from a prolonged (five month)
vacation last summer, that were not able to come home with me until now. Mostly
books. A lot of books. Books everywhere. Really though, I feel like that is
quite a good problem to have. And it gives me a legitimate excuse to organize and
reorganize my shelves, one of my favorite pastimes. There are few things I like
to play with so much as books.
Vacation was full of fun times as
usual. Friends, family, nature – everything I love. It also included my first
trip to a pumpkin patch since I was three years old, and my first time through
a corn maze ever, perfect fall pastimes.
As soon as the last four stacks of
books are shelved and I have (partially) reclaimed my room from the rampaging
horde, it’s back to life as usual, but hopefully moving forward in a better
direction in one or two areas, particularly meal planning (the bane of my
existence), time management (also known as “being an adult”), and general
organization. Hopefully there will be personal improvement in all of these
areas that will carry over to this blog as well.
It may take me a day or two to get
back in the swing of things, but I hope to have some exciting travel posts and,
as usual, book reviews coming up soon! And now I’m going to go play with my
books.
Has everyone else been enjoying
their fall?
I LOVED SEEING YOU!
ReplyDeleteI loved seeing you again too. :) See if I can't make it a little shorter between trips this next time.
