You know you've been away from home too long when: you're excited about doing the laundry (all 10 loads piled up) - you're looking forward to cooking - you can't wait to dust - you don't mind scheduling the bills  - you want your kids to play gamecube and watch TV (because you've been their entertainment for 4 days in the car)!!!   Yes! We've been on a week long vacation and we're back and I'm so happy!

We had a great time in Scottsdale, AZ.  It was like an oasis in the desert (oh yeah! It is an oasis in the desert).  Anyway.  It was beautiful.  But I love the feel of coming home and being in my own house, bed, kitchen (no more fast food - yay!), and my own routine.     And, of course, I've missed HSB. 

Now it's on to wrapping, shopping, baking, planning, and reading my 5th Karen Kingsbury book.  Life is good!   And God get's the glory.  Amen.

I know your feelings exactly. I am becoming more and more the homebody as I age. My husband wants to visit his cousin in AZ-a long trip from the Hoosier State. A few days of camping at a local state park is about my limit of being away from home anymore. I am glad you had a great trip and I did learn something from your post...I didn't know Scottsdale was an oasis in the desert. Thanks
