I managed to tear myself away from my rural escape and back to the sweaty armpit I call home. yay. I can barely contain my joy. ; )
I wasn't exactly impressed with my 30 degree home upon my return...I traded in the swimming pool and air conditioning for a spray bottle with a personal fan attachment which just doesn't quite provide the same relief...
...thank god last nights rain really cooled things down in here all the way down to a chilly 27.5 and I was able to clean the place up today and unpack all the goods I collected over my stay on the farm...
I think I've mentioned that my mom also loves to thrift and her encouragement is a recipe for some serious hoarding on my part plus there was an estate sale so I was doomed from the start. I realised I may have gone overboard when we couldn't fit everything in the trunk on the way back to Toronto, but whatever... my finds are awesome and I have a use for every single one of them...
Here's MOST of what I got...
So I must admit I was feeling a bit down about being back and I was missing my family and some cooler temps so a yummy feast that I didn't have to cook was exactly what I needed...and my friend Jill really delivered...
It was a perfect soiree to welcome me back to civilization...
and today it was just me and the Mr. having dinner in our hot little abode...
Back to the grind tomorrow....vacations never last forever but I feel pretty refreshed!
Love Desiree
