Getting Back to Normal

Glad to go, glad to come back, not glad to catch up on all the cleaning, but it had to be done.  Laundry done, bathrooms cleaned, rugs vacuumed, we're getting there.  Place aired out to get rid of the closed house odor.  Bless Mac for doing Miss Kitty's box.  And most of all enjoying the wonderful weather, just in the 70's with lows in the 50's, it's heaven.
Need to grocery shop, but that can wait till tomorrow.  Will make a chicken stew today and that will last for 2 days so I won't have to cook when we get back from the commissary.
Watched most of a movie last night, one we actually started on a Korean Airline flight in March.  It's Shin Godzilla, a new Godzilla movie and we're loving it.  Done with subtitles of course and it mocks the way everything in Japan has to be done in meetings, no one can make a decision.  Very funny. Why can't Hollywood make a decent Godzilla movie, oh that's right, they're too busy sexually harassing people.
Haven't enjoyed the baseball playoffs much, looks like it's going to be the Yankees and the Dodgers, 2 of the best teams money can buy----BORING.
Will post more about our trip tomorrow after I finish sorting photos.

  1. It's always good to get home, no matter how great our trip was. Shin Godzilla, huh? I'll have to look for that!

    1. It's a movie for those who love Godzilla movies, not for everyone.

  2. I so agree with all you have said.
    Boring baseball Dodgers and Yankees = MONEY.

  4. Glad you are home safe and sound.....and it is all the 'catch up' things that smack you in the face when you get home that can drive you nuts.

    Hope to see some pictures of your trip. xo Diana

  5. That’s a phrase we always use, good to get away, but just as good to get home again xx

  6. Lost interest in the playoffs after the Diamondbacks were eliminated. Always good to come home, no matter how great the trip was.

  7. I think you need another holiday after catching up with all the housework when you get back. Daniel visited the US last month, his first time meeting his girlfriend's family (who are American) and her mum and dad took them to a baseball game, the first one he's ever been to. I think it was the Colorado Rockies.

    1. Sounds like he was in Colorado. We lived in Colorado Springs for 2 years, that's south of Denver. How did he like it?

    2. She comes from just outside Denver. He really enjoyed what he saw of it, though they spent lots of time just visiting family, but they did go into Denver and into the Rockies which he really enjoyed. They're hoping to spend Christmas there next year but it will depend on them both getting time off from work.

  10. Sometimes, by the time you catch up with all the domestic chores after a holiday ...... you need another one!
