Visiting is nice and all, but nothing compares to home.
What do I miss?
Whole Foods (lame, yes -- but I had to travel out of state yesterday to do grocery shopping and the pickings were dismal at best)
city water (how can my hair be oily and flaky at the same time? that's what I want to know)
Tuckie (I miss that badassmotherfucker, yo)
my bed
cooking with my pots and pans
being in a gluten-free home
my sewing machine
being in a pet-free home
people not having allergic reactions
ability to go somewhere without traveling over 30 minutes to get there
showering in a shower I don't magically break (dude, don't ask)
knowing the channels on the tv
Legos
my yard (is anything blooming out there yet ladies?)
lakes that aren't frozen
friends
showering on my time schedule
having an internet provider that doesn't crash my computer (poor Aaron, the computer is still bugging out and Aaron's spending hours a day trying to fix it)
washing our clothes
sleeping in my bed
food, food, food, food and more food
working on the house when I have "downtime"
closets and drawers to put clothes away in
piles of magazines to read
my mixer
being on the computer without feeling rushed and guilty.

Dude...I miss Whole Foods, and I gotta travel about 2 hours to get to one (Trader Joe's as well) Sometimes the best things about vacations is coming home and truly being able to appreciate home in a new way...right?
I got grass poking up, but no blooms. Lotsa rain. It ain't pretty, but it's spring in the midwest, and I'll take it. Come back soon, honey. We miss you. xox
I'm the same way when I'm on vacation. My house might be small and crappy but I love it. It's comfy and it's MINE, ALL MINE!! I didn't know that I had so many comforts at home until I left it.
Tuckie IS in good hands, right?
I only ever realize what a homebird I am when I have to stay with somebody else - streeeeeesssssssss!
Don't worry, you'll be back shopping at Whole Foods and all the rest soon. Tuckie misses you too. He says my cricket dispensing technique leaves a lot to be desired, yo.
oh man-- i know what you mean about traveling 30 min. to get anywhere --that's where I live, baby! All shopping is done at horrid box stores and let's just say that Price Chopper is the pick of the grocery litter...oy! and, yes, it's all a lovely 30 min drive away....man, sometimes I miss the 'burbs!
and, no, I have nothing popping up--my yard is still under a good 18 inches of snow....sigh...
Home is where the heart is...and you definitely miss it when you leave.
I think that's probably why I'm never in a real hurry to go on vacation.
There is no place like home! Amazing how much better it looks when you can't be in it. Enjoy the time away.
please be driving carefully.
word.
Glad you are home & all still alive...Xxx
Well, I would miss many of those things as well. Won't you be coming home soon?
The best part about vacation is coming home!
I hear you on this one. We recently visted my father in law for a week and a half and I ended up sick from eating products with glutten in them. We started doing it for my daughter but our bodies got so used to it that we need it now too.
