Home again

Holidays are great, but do you know what’s also cool? Returning to a home you love. Spending quality time with a disgruntled cat (who was taken care of by our nephew while we were away), cooking food and generally being happy at home, too.

I know there were times where I dreaded going home from a holiday, because I wasn’t happy with my “regular” life. The times when I returned from frantically not thinking about my situation at home or at work, desperately trying to squeeze as many seconds from a holiday as I could, until I sat in the car, train or plane, heading back home with a heavy heart.

These times suck, and I hope you’re having better times.

But nowadays I enjoy being at home. My wife does such an excellent job of making it cozy and nice, and I really like the place. I am not saying there aren’t any challenges (at work, mostly) in my life, and I know some changes are coming and they aren’t small, but that’s something for the future. Right now, I enjoy the moment.

I hope you can enjoy yours.
