Vacations Are Great...

.... but, the first day back to work after a nice long two week vacation is tough. Yesterday was a rough day. Not so much the getting up and getting ready part, although the alarm clock was a bit alarming. It was when all the things on my to-do-list were done and I was at home sitting on the couch. I started reading a biography on Houdini a few days ago, and all day long I was excited to read more of it. By the time in the day came where I could read the book my mind was too tired I couldn't concentrate and the fascinating story of the Handcuff King. Maybe this feeling will get to be less by the end of the week, if not I might need another vacation.

The End of Wonderland

Vacation is over and the reality of work set in today. No more lazy mornings of "working" on my laptop and sipping coffee with blueberry milk. No more days with no schedule other than what I can dream up to do. This past week of vacation has been my most treasured vacation where I simply stayed at home and enjoyed the beautiful little slice of paradise that I live in. Just eight more weeks of school, and then I can enjoy another wonderful week of nothing. At that point I will really have something to celebrate - not only will school be in its "home stretch", but I will also have finished with my masters degree!














My little slice of paradise this time of year!



My little slice of paradise in the summer!
