Under the weather.

Today I am feeling quite under the weather. I seem to have the sniffles, the sneezes, and the aches. I can't quite figure out where this unexplainable cold came from, but never the less it is here and I don't think I'm fond of it.

I have had a busy summer. Going from one place to the next seemed like it would be extraordinary, but unfortunately it has weighed me down with stress and sleepiness. Note to self: never make so many plans for summer, let summer work itself out. If I had planned one large vacation it would have been perfect, but I fear I over booked myself and it is finally catching up with me.

Tomorrow my husband and I head home, and I can't say I'm not glad. While I have thoroughly enjoyed being with my entire family, and wish that they could all live close by, I am rather ready to just sit and have time to myself. Like the picture, I feel as though I've been crammed into too many small places that I am far too big for. I need some space, and I am happy that I will get some tomorrow.

So, for today, I'm going to try to relax as much as possible. Although my mom's birthday celebration is on the agenda, and my sisters and I are making a fabulous German Chocolate cake from scratch, I am sure I will manage to hold my cold at bay for at least one more day.
