The worst thing about vacation

I don't get a whole lot of vacations in my life. 

And I really appreciate when I do.

But there's always a downside about vacation for me....

You see, I'm used to how difficult my life is on a daily basis... the raising 3 kids on my own... the running around to different activities... the working all hours of the night to get things done....

And during vacation, I get some help.  Sometime a little.  Sometimes a lot.

But it's actual help.

It's great.  The problem is that it's hard to go back to doing it on my own.  It's jarring. 

It's like being on a diet.  It's easy to stay on it once you've been on it for awhile. 

But when you take a weekend off?  It's a herculean effort to start back up again....

I figure it's like the laws of inertia... Body in motion tends to stay in motion.  Body at rest tends to stay at rest.  The outside force required to change that it huge.

But it's not optional. 

So, time to pull up my big girl panties again and get back in the swing of things....

In 5... 4... 3... 2.....


Just Keep Coming Back
