May 2008
Back from an amazing visit with my family. I feel like I really recharged and refocused. As much as I miss Indiana and everyone there and as hard is it is for me to leave, I know I am in the right place. I cannot stay home for the kids or my dog or my parents or my bedroom. I have to go and live my life.
Its hard to grow up for real. But its nice to go back home for a few days and remember what it was like to be little and sitting on the couch listening to your mom talk on the phone in the living room, with your dog at your feet and your dad watering the yard. Home.
Cooking club today. Theme: Childhood Favorites.
For the benifit of everyone involved I am not cooking. I bought candy and am making “Caroline Shirley Temples”.
