Back in Oakland

[theatokos]

I didn't want to leave. I never do. This trip to Anchorage was the first one where I thought I might actually be able to live there. I miss family nearby. I loved being able to be all about babies with the FG. I liked having dinners with her family and my family. I loved walking along the interurban trail there, sun glistening on frosty tree tips, chill air biting my cheeks. Just awesome.

The plane rides home were surprisingly manageable, but I'm actually a little dizzy from lack of sleep, even after a 3.5 hour nap. Bennett had a melt down when we got home. Too much stimulation for little B! He's also noticeably larger than when he left.

The house is a mess. My bags are partially open and spilling out all over the floors.

I wish I were still in Alaska, but I'm glad to be home.

I'm feeling melodramatic, and I could have totally written this very entry. I miss home, and I miss my BF, and I miss my god children. I could go on and on about home but then I will just feel ill and blame it on you! Lol

I'm glad your ride was easy, I think we nursed and slept the entire way here. Exciting. Lol

Let it be a mess, let the bags stay 3/4 unpacked, worry about it later.
