A trip to St. Lucia that began
in late November turned difficult because of travel delays. When we finally returned
in mid-December, we had just five days at home before a quick turnaround and a 20-day trip to England. Weather travel delays made the trip even longer! We didn’t even bother decorating for
Christmas and the joy of wanderlust has dimmed for a while.
All I want to do is lock the
front door, lower the blinds and laze about on the couch.
Sadly, Janet had a prior commitment to travel to Florida with college chums that a hurricane postponed in October. We finally got home last Tuesday late and on Wednesday several college friends were rendezvousing at our middle-class garret in Collegeville for the eventual flight to Ft. Myers. When they finally left, I locked the front door and lowered the blinds, put my feet up and nursed a malingering cold with whisky. Save for the twice daily dog walks I haven’t left the house.
Don't worry Janet will be back soon and after her own stretch of down time we will start gearing up for our next trip in mid-February.
I know, I know....1st world problems.
