We"re are back home and trying to get back in to the swing of things. Its been a bit harder, sleep wise to get back to Alberta time(NB is 3 hours ahead). Grace is the one having the troubles, but I suffer too. It's so nice to be home to Geoff but I really do feel torn. Its the hardest leaving Parents #2 i think. But we sure did all that we could while we were there.
Most of the shopping I did while home was all stuff that was made locally. Jams, Peanut butter, Tea's, even bath salts. I've leaned that when you go home, go straight for the stuff your missing out on. Nothing else really matters. So I came home with some treasures that I can truly appreciate and maybe, should you be in my neighbourhood, you could appreciate too!
Yesterday, our first full day back, Grace and I cleaned form top to bottom. Geoff did a good job cleaning, don't get me wrong, but I like to do the nit and grit jobs, and I wouldn't of been able to relax until I knew they were done. So once that ws outta the way, Grace and I were off to buy groceries and re stock. We came home put it all away and then Had Gracies friend over to play, and I got to have a visit too. We went out for a quick visit to my friend tams, and then home again to make dinner for the younger siblings. Well not blood ones, but they are good enough for me. We went down to the farmers market and had some homemade lemonade and Mini donuts. Then ended off the evening with homemade strawberry short cake.
I'm not sure if I have been keeping myself busy to try to get back on Alberta time or to avoid feeling homesick. Maybe its a little of both... Have you ever felt like that?
Anyway, today, I'm gonna be lazy. Im too tired not to be. So I brewed my self a cup of chocolate strawberry tea and and plan on soaking up the sun this afternoon. Its good to be home, but I really do miss my trip...
