Back to reality in a few days. Back to being at home more than just a few hours of crashing in bed on the weekends. Back to cooking supper every night, back to doing laundry. Yes, I was spoiled by my mom this summer and I enjoyed every second of it. The kids and I will soon start living full time with our renter. It's going to be interesting.
With the busyness of school and soccer season almost upon us, there will be no more running away on the weekends. Endless hours spent in the car going anywhere but here to avoid thinking about how much our lives have changed in six months. My mom said she can't believe how I can never stay home on the weekend, how I always have to be 'running the roads'. I didn't tell her that it's for my own sanity. I just hope the walls of my house don't start closing in on me like they were doing at the end of last school year, before we escaped for most of the summer.
