Having two weeks off was awesome! I know some people complain about that much “togetherness,” but it really was great for us. Yes, I missed having my free time when Claire would have been in school, but I can’t even complain about that! I mean, the grandparents were here for over a week, and during that time, I had so much free time I almost wasn’t sure to do with myself. I’d get glimpses of Claire every now and then, but I had no real hand in keeping her happy, fed, or clothed. It was awesome!
Am I supposed to admit that out loud?
Then, we had a week to ourselves, which was nice, too. We love our guests, but it’s always nice to have our house back. In fact, looking back, there were whole days that went by when none of us even changed into real clothes. It was awesome!

Well, with Monday’s dawning comes a snap back to Reality…or 2010‘s version of it anyway. Daddy goes back to work today, which will be a shock to his system, but I think he’ll survive. He says he’s enjoyed all this time with us, but I can tell by the wild look in his eyes (and that pesky twitch) that it’s time for him to get back to his routine.
Sometimes we’ve joked that his motto is “TGIM” instead of “TGIF,” but he does refrain from skipping to his car.
Most of the time.
