My 20 days of fun vacation were over..
'Good morning ! Let the stress begin', the little plaque in my desk announced..Yup..i was back to the daily grind..
To the shrieking alarm clock and the super busy mornings, the long commutes, number crunching, report analyzing and the barrage of emails..Back to the much awaited one hour lunch breaks and swapping stories with friends..to the dull afternoons and Captain Java's rescues..
Back to listening to my kid's daily stories of school and the list of chores that await me at home..The little squealing guinea pigs and the shrill whistles of the cooker..The head butting with my daughter's home work and family dinners.. looking forward to the weekends and the little issues with our lawn not being green enough or the roses not being big enough..Back to my weekend ' the kitchen is closed strikes'..The cleaning dates with the restrooms, the dusting dates with the book shelves and the washing dates with my laundry machine.
Back to my blog and my occasional sketches..The phone calls to home and friends.. to being home sick and craving for mom's cooking..Back to the weekend BBQ and birthday parties, pot lucks, good food and fine friends..Playing the host and the chief..The frequent grocery shopping and new recipe trials..Back to paying bills and my overly swiped bank card..The bike rides and the exercise routines..The so called diets and the hopes of loosing weight..The routine doctor's visits and their never ending co pays..Back to this and much more..Being back is such a bore you might think..
But i love it, daily grind or not..After all there is no place like home !!
