Returning from Vacation

How many of you actually go away when you have a break from school or work?  Well, I do that over spring break.  My daughter and I spent the week in Florida basically doing nothing other than sitting by the pool.  It was truly a lovely respite from the craziness of our every day lives.  I was very sad to leave that all behind and come back to my real life.  Now, of course, I'm back at work.  I was clearly away long enough to forget just how busy my days are and how exhausted I feel.  Wow, what a difference between vacation and work. I'm not sure it's ever been quite so pronounced before.  I've only been here half a day and I'm ready to crawl into bed and stay there for a few weeks.  I'm not even sure I would dream I'm so tired. 

I will say that having the time to rest made a great deal of difference in the way I feel.  I could rest when I wanted to, eat when I needed to and just not be stressed.  What a wonderful life.  It's a shame that I can't live that way full time.  I wonder how good I would feel if I didn't have to maintain my daily routine. 

Ah well, now that I'm back I just have to plug away.  Happy Spring Everyone!  I'm looking forward to planting flowers soon.  I'm sure we'll talk about that soon.
