There’s no place like home ...

Unlike Dorothy I have no need to click my heels together and repeat the phrase above. I am there. We arrived home right on schedule last night and pulled in to our driveway at 6:57 p.m. How’s that for a good guess? The house seems huge after spending two weeks in our 1,000 square foot cabin. So much space! We were gone long enough that things look and feel strange to us. It will take a few days to acclimate to the East coast again, just as it took us a good 3 days to settle into the cabin. The dogs are having no such issues. They are home and that’s all that matters. All their familiar habits that were out of place at the cabin have resurfaced now that they are back in their home environment. Some of them are good; some are not.

More later. Just wanted to touch base and say that we arrived safe and sound. Now there is unpacking to do, but the laundry will have to wait at least one more day. Our dryer died the day before we left, so a service person is due out tomorrow to see what the trouble is. I do have to visit the grocery store though since the larder is bare. I’m thinking maybe some Salt and Pepper Shrimp for dinner ...

About

Welcome, I'm Lynne. You know me better as a 'new' Jersey Girl. But now I've moved once again, this time to North Carolina. Here I write about my thoughts, good food, and of course, dogs.
