Unplugged

I went to Idaho for the weekend. It was a long overdue vacation for me. It says something about how busy I have been lately, when 12 hours of driving over three days with 4-7 kids in the car is relaxing. The number of passengers fluctuated because I was playing shuttle. I drove my sister and her two kids to my brother’s house. Then I took three of my brother’s kids to my other sister’s house. Then I brought only my own kids home. The driving was tiring, but it was so nice to not be in charge for awhile. I slept a lot at my sisters house. While I slept, the kids had a great time being with their cousins. I did not even touch a computer the whole time I was gone. It was lovely.

Today has been a recovery day. Again there was sleeping. Tomorrow I will pick up my taskload and I’ll get back to work. But it doesn’t seem too heavy anymore. Vacation is good for me. I’m planning another one for July.
