back to what

Well, it's the last day of our Thanksgiving vacation. Today is the best day weather-wise, for sure. It's beautiful. And, as much as I hate winter, I'm surprisingly happy that it's somewhat cold. The warm weather in November felt kinda creepy and even the flies seemed confused as to why they were still alive.

Despite the earlier mishaps on this trip, it's been great. Relaxing, beautiful scenery and lots of food and drinks, as I'd hoped. It's been great to be with our little family and our friends. C has been so great. Her language is just developing so much every minute, and she's becoming such a sweet little person. And I just love it when she sings her little songs. I am really smitten with this kid.

So, back to the mainland today. Then, on Tuesday, I am back to Phase 2 of this whole process. It's a strange time right now. I'm about to go back to work, but I won't fully be mentally or physically there. I'm about to start treatment and I'm not entirely sure what to expect. And, then there's Christmas which is alarmingly early-feeling this year. So, it doesn't feel like I'm heading back to "the grind" as I normally would after these types of breaks. It's definitely back to something, I'm just not exactly sure what.
