We had a great time on our Bahamian vacation. With the exception of one
day, the weather cooperated providing us with sunny and warm days to
spend playing in the pools and ocean. Robby was partial to visiting the
aquarium (which we did at least a dozen times) and feeding the various
sea animals. Of course feeding the Koopas was his all-time favorite
activity and one which we did at each opportunity.
However, all
good things must come to an end, and Saturday morning we woke and
headed home. Robby's tears which he shed on the way to the airport were a
distant memory as soon as Charlie Cat met us at the door. It was
certainly more fun carrying the luggage to the car before we left versus
lugging it all back inside after we came home.
Yesterday while
Robby happily played with his feline friend, I trudged my way through
the mountain of laundry that we had accumulated on our vacation. I
continue to be astounded that three people can dirty so many clothes!
Scott spent the majority of the day vegging out in front of the
television, flipping between various sporting events and movies that he
has seen at least a dozen times. I think that we all needed space and
time to decompress after the non-stop togetherness and excitement during
the past week. Few words were exchanged, and we all seemed content
being alone in our separate rooms.
The quiet broke as soon as I
put dinner on the table. Robby started chatting about our vacation and
relived his favorite adventures. I was happy to be sitting around our
dining room table, eating food that I prepared. Although the food at the
resort was good, after awhile it all started to taste the same. It was
nice to have familiar and distinct flavors again.
Although I
could use another day or two to decompress, today I resume our summer
schedule. I'm still feeling out of sorts and I'm having a difficult time
prioritizing my projects. Hopefully I'll be able to figure out where to
start soon because I feel like I'm spinning my wheels right now. I
guess my brain is still lounging in the Bahamas.
