Habits

Isn't it strange how habits work- how easy it is to get into them- how difficult to get out of them???

I lived away from my house for about a month- from the 13th of December until the 13 of January. I loved being at Jenafers. I loved spending a few days in Vegas and I am extremely grateful to that Spanish Fork family for keeping me for weeks and weeks and weeks.

But, I also glad to be home, even if it is taking my body a few days to remember I am home.

I woke up the other night to a sound on the other side of my wall and assumed is was the baby until I woke up the next morning in Colorado Springs. I was taking a decidedly cold shower on Sunday because I couldn't remember to turn my knob the other way for the hot water (obviously- Keryn's shower is the opposite of mine). I keep turning on both switches in my bathroom- thus turning on both the light and the fan because in Keryn's downstairs bathroom I was used to turn on both of her lights. At one point, I looked at my stove and couldn't understand what happened to the tinfoil under the burners until I remembered I never put tinfoil under my burners.

It is strange the kinds of tricks our minds play on us.

In other subjects- I almost got stuck in the snow today. This is my third winter in Colorado and I have never seen this much snow piled up everywhere. Unless you are driving on a major street- you are driving on packed, churned, muddy snow. For the first time since I moved here I thought to myself- Oh dear, I don't like driving in this!!!

But- all in all, I am glad to be home and I miss you all terribly. (I spent some time looking at pictures today and ended up crying!!!)


Love you all,
LaDale
