Post-Vacation Musings

The last week was a blur. We drove some 1500 miles round-trip, saw some beautiful scenery, visited with family and friends, ate way too much food that's bad for us, and spent some quality time together as a family.

The occasion was Christmas, of course. While it was a hectic week, I was thankful for the break from routine and change of scenery.

At the end of the week I was ready to come home and sleep in my own bed, but I was not ready to go back to my responsibilities and routine.

Getting away from all that for a week, I felt like I was starting to come back to myself a bit – to get out of the rut I feel like I've been in.

Even though I just came back from vacation, I feel like I need to do what Dr. Leo Marvin tells Bob Wiley to do in the dark comedy film What About Bob?. I need to figure out how to take a vacation from my problems.
