Life at home has gotten officially boring. At first the miracle of writing down whatever you want on the shopping list and then having it appear in the kitchen a few days later amazed me. Now I've come to accept it as standard procedure. And having a mom and/or dad to cook dinner at least and sometimes lunch and sometimes even breakfast for me has ceased to be a fantastic event. I've even started to take the dishwasher for granted. All this unexitement about things that were super exciting a month ago mean that it's time for my posh little vacation at home to be over and for me to move on to something else. Another week and I'll be headed up to AK!
