one day.
well technically about 36 hours. but that was my alloted time home for the month of february. so lucky me that it falls on the 14th. i have to say that waking up in my own bed was such a comfort. alot of times i wake up in a hotel room and literally dont know where i am. or what day it is. or what im' supposed to be doing. but saturday was fantastic. i even slept in till about 10. only to be woken up with breakfast in bed. sweet! pancakes and fake sausage. a veg girls dream. ha. the rest of the day was spent taking clothes out of my suitcase , washing them, and then re-packing. (though i've found that since i've arrived at my next destination, i'm not sure i was entire conscious while packing as i seem to have forgotten to pack any shirts....plenty of lower half apparel but a shockingly low supply of tops.. ) anyway on to a 3.5 hour brick. which was just the kick in the pants i needed after a long flight the day before. i'm proud of how my t runs are coming. im feeling much stronger and taking less time to get the lead out. i regretfully say that i spent a few hours in the office as well. totally F'd up my chi for the day. that night we had grilled fish and watched the superbowl. we hadnt seen the televised version yet so i was pretty excited to see some of the great plays replayed over and over again. though not nearly as emotional as the first go round, the end still got me choked up a bit. so happy to see those guys win. or maybe i was just realizing that i was yet again about to leave all of this home life that i love so much. i do love to travel. dont get me wrong. new places and new things. the world is to big and too spectacular to sit on your couch. but at the same time. there are things at home that are just worth sticking around for.
