In Florida

The kids and I have been in Florida for a little over a week. It didn't take long for me to remember why we left. Four of the children have asked when we are going home. One missed the spring water and his friends. Another misses her cat, and the farm animals, "you know, the chickens and the goats...". Two more miss the open spaces and the trees, whilest one mentioned missing his bedroom...and his bed.

As for me, well, for now I'll just say that honestly, aside from my husband and pool and a small handful of friends, there is absolutely down here that my heart longs for. I could leave this place tomorrow and never wish to return. I am thrilled to be with my husband and to spend time with him. I am enjoying the pool and the sun. But I'm about ready to go home. I only stay for my Bear...because I miss him so much when we are apart. Someone really needs to purchase this house so we can be together all the time.

I tried calling the Diva, but I have an old number. So I've emailed her to get her new one so we can get together. :) Possibly Diva, Jane and I can get together. That would be good.

I'd like to see Fred (Gerbilman) on the return trip, if he's up to it. I have a present for him...

Pobble, I miss our chats as well. Life will slow down...it always does. Then well get to chat again.

I hope everyone is doing well.
