I miss my home. In no particular order, I miss my husband, my bed, my cats, my computer, my sister and her family, and my friends. When I travel, I carry things that are essential. I always bring my pillow, chap-stick, my husband’s stuffed llama and my after shower lotion. As each day goes by though, I catch myself wishing I had brought something else with me. Today I wanted my Crocs, my large plastic drinking glass, and my Ralph Lauren bath sheets. There is nothing like a warm bath sheet after a shower. This makes me miss my bed, because I am a lotion applying fiend after a shower and I do this balanced on the edge of my bed. I wanted my Crocs because I am constantly running outside to take out the trash, check the mail, or run an errand for my mom. As I blog and attempt to drop a few Entrecards, I so miss my computer but more importantly the large plastic glasses that I keep filled with water and ice by my computer. I couldn’t take IE for another day so I had to install Firefox on my mom’s computer. She about fell out in the floor because I changed something on her system. I totally understand her taking issue, but I don’t function well with IE. Six days and counting till I go home. I can hear my bed calling!
P.S. My mom is recovering quite nicely. Thanks to everyone for your prayers and kind thoughts!
Awh Beekers, I missed having a proper desk while I was living in Ireland. I used to sit at the end of my bed, and use my laptop that was sitting on a shelving unit. It was NOT good for my back. I find I miss more things about my life in Dublin than I missed about my life here in Toronto. But that might be because more things were ‘mine’ when I was in Dublin. Living with my parents is very different – obviously. lol Hope the 6 days goes by quickly for you.
Glad to hear your Mum’s recovering well.
I’m with you on the Ralph Lauren bath towels… those are NICE! Also, you’re the first person who admits to liking Crocs. I like them as well and don’t get the hate.
Fragile: I don’t know what I would do without a desk. I guess you just make do. Being back at home with my mom makes me miss having my own space. I don’t miss mom’s rules!
Jillian: I adore those towels. Nothing is better. People really knock the Crocs, but not me. I love mine. They are bright green and really comfy!
