I'm going to need a vacation from my vacation

I swear I'm going to need another week just to recover from having this week off.

It's been practically nonstop. Parties, going here, get togethers, going there, houseguests, more visitors, the list goes on.

We had a house full of people on Saturday for the birthday party, then yesterday for the 4th of July, and now today we have more family over for a get together. Last night and tonight we'll have overnight guests, and tomorrow my Aunt & Uncle go back home to Connecticut.

I'm wiped. While I'm not looking forward to my family leaving, it'll be nice to return to a bit of normalcy for a few days before I return to work. Come Monday it's going to back to the daily grind.

Which, for my sanity, is probably a good thing. Don't get me wrong ... the kids have loved having me home, and I've enjoyed it as well. And they have been pretty good for the most part, but I think all the stimulation and the week's events are catching up to them, because they've been beasts today.

So, I'll end this so that I can go find somewhere to put my feet up and relax.

Hope everyone had a wonderful July 4th!
