Well Hawaii has come and gone and just as so many said it would be, it was amazing! We went to Pearl Harbor, relaxed by the pool, swam at the beach (my first time swimming in the Pacific!), saw sea turtles, stood on a volcano, saw a water fall, walked through a lava tube, stood on a black sand beach, got a massage, snorkeled, punched myself in the face when hitting the water coming off of a water slide attached to the snorkel boat, and just plain unwound! Whew! I need a vacation now that I'm back!
The end of a vacation is always tough. You're supposed to be refreshed and ready to tackle what life throws at you. I think this vacation made things worse because I just want to go back and lay on a beach. What makes it worse is that the weather here is phenomenal! All making it really tough to focus on a really busy week!
Sloane started day care on Monday. I tried to smooth the transition by taking her in for a half day. That kind of back fired as she did not nap. at all. We had one tired girl on our hands. Luckily the last two days she's taken her normal very good, long naps. I still have a very tired girl on my hands when I pick her up.. she can barely get through dinner and a bath before she's out. They're definitely keeping her busy. What makes me happy is that when we walk into the building Sloane gets really excited and immediately reaches out for her teachers. LONG SIGH OF RELIEF. She's so happy and smiley when I drop her off and pick her up so I am a happy mom.
Being back in the real world again also means it's time to start getting this house ready for the market. We've been looking at houses in the Raleigh NC area and are very excited and anxious to make the move. The houses down there are beautiful and in wonderful neighborhoods. We'll be hiring an agent here soon to assess what we should and shouldn't do to the house before putting it up for sale… Anyone out there interested in a nice quiet house in Tyngsborough Massachusetts?
Well, time to get some sleep, another long day ahead. Friday will be exciting as both the Bobcats and the Wolfpack are in the sweet sixteen!!!
