2011 and already behind?!?

Good grief!  Here it is and 2011 has started with a rush of activity and adrenaline!


I have already been home for a few days and have I gotten anything uploaded?  NOPE!  Ugh :(  So much to do, so little time it seems.  It's hard to believe that the miracle trip is over.  I knew it would fly past.  But the strangest thing... it's almost as though I've been suspended in time and it never even happened.  I hovered overhead, frozen, unmoving.  So much happened around me, a blur.  Now, I find myself plopped into life again like it never changed.  No vacation, no family, no giggles, no snow, right back to life as usual.  Only now, I have the clean up of the virtual vacation.  Suitcases (seemingly unused except for the pile of dirty laundry that mocks me from the corner of the room), piles of snacks, and coolers, and trash, and everything else that found it's way into my home since our return.  Where's my virtual maid anyway?  She stares back at me from the mirror with a quizzical look on her face.  She keeps asking when I'm going to get this stuff done.  I don't think I like this maid.  Maybe I should fire her.


The tree.... decorated, but didn't I JUST do that yesterday?  Such a strange sensation this is.  I want to play again, not be a responsible mommy and wife.  I want to play with my photos :)  I've been starved of this for an eternity it seems.  Funny, isn't it?  On vacation for two weeks, but seems like I never left; not played with my photos for two weeks, seems like forever!


I think that for some reason my brain still hasn't caught up on it's sleep.  Maybe it's jet lag, oh wait.... WE DROVE!  Maybe it's car lag?  Whatever my issues are at THIS moment in time, they must be pushed through and put to bed I suppose (pun intended :).


Maybe tomorrow I'll be able to play some.  Maybe.  Please Lord.  Tomorrow?  Tomorrow.
