Oh, my kingdom for a photo album! Oy! Someday, my sweets!
I am having some trouble adjusting to real life again. Yes, it's true that I got very sick of hotel living and restaurant eating, but at home no one and I mean NO ONE makes my bed unless I do it. Dinner? Sure, but I have to stand at the stove and cook it. It's not just politely set in front of me. Cooking is only one part. There's the planning. The old "What is going to be for dinner tonight??" routine. What???! boneless chicken breasts again? And that's me whining to myself. Never mind the teenagers food complaints! And why is it so easy to get up early on vacation? The sun would rise in the sky and my eyes would pop open ready to meet another day. Now, the alarm bleats its tune while I have the pillow over my head trying to ignore it. "Just 5 more minutes!" Or maybe an hour! Did someone glue my eyelids shut while I was sleeping? When I come home from work, no one has tidied up my bathroom, the floor still needs to be vaccuumed and the stove beckons.
The grass is always greener on the other side, eh?

I missed you yesterday! Netscape wouldn't let me access your blog... how sad.
When you find the magic pill to get the vacation treatment at home, bottle it. You would make a fortune!Alissa [alissa@knittingfairy.com]

Oh, poor baby. It's cruel to have to come back to the real world! Of course I CAN expect the vaccuming to be done, DH does it due to my allergies. I get an instant headache when the exhaust hits me. And it's supposed to be a very good model for allergic people.
