How have your first few hours back been? Did you do all the things you said you would do? Eat steak, enjoy your own bed, cuddle with your pets, call friends, visit with family, take long showers? I made it to the ten o’clock news Friday night but found myself wide awake between 2:30 and 3:30 am. I did finally get back to sleep and on Saturday morning drove back out to the airport to pick up joyful Joy. Saturday afternoon we opened India gifts in the living room and made a nice meaty pasta sauce and a big salad. (I’m definitely going to steer clear of thin spicy veg curries, rice, and chapatti for a while!)
I hope all of you are enjoying a great weekend back in Toronto. It was a pleasure travelling with you. Each day, as many of you have written already, was a new adventure and I’m proud of how you embraced those adventures and made the most of them.
Finally, thanks for all the kind words that have been posted here by parents since the last blog in India.
