Today is my last day of my mini-vacation. I’m definitely ready to be back on a routine. Too much unstructured time leaves me all at loose ends. That said, I am not ready for the “get back into the swing of things” rush that always happens when one comes back from vacation.

I’m definitely feeling some gratitude this week, too:

1. Having supportive people in my life, no matter how near or far.
2. Pictures of sunny beaches, even if there are none around Cleveland for miles.
3. In a similar vein, huge, wooly, comfy (if ugly) sweaters to stay warm with.
4. Fuzzy socks.
5. Long naps on a comfy couch.
