I can't feel my legs

I can't feel my legs, but it's ok. I've missed my boys. ❤️

The view outside of my office.

The view outside of my office. I am SO, SO happy to be home. Those mountains bring me joy.

Yesterday morning. You can even see the fire.

Right now.

Today was my first day working from home.

Today was my first day working from home.

The cats behaved.

The room is bright and warm (just how I like it).

There's a handsome husbang available to have lunch with.

My setup is lovely and pretty comfortable.

I have the bathroom to myself.

Everything I need and want is right near me.

Overall, no complaints about working from home, although I did have a headache that I couldn't shake.

I think this will be pretty great.

I think being away was harder on me than I realized.

I think being away was harder on me than I realized. I feel so antsy, like it's almost time to leave again because most of my visits home were about a week long. I had a nightmare last night that I was called away for another few months. Logically I know that won't happen, but I'm having a hard time settling.

Maybe once I start back working next week it'll start to feel real that I'm home for good. I sure hope so.

My adventures in Cincinnati are over.

My adventures in Cincinnati are over.

I spent 2.5 days packing and deep-cleaning the apartment, and 2.5 days driving home. I made it home Sunday and have been settling in and spending time with my family ever since.

I don't know how I managed to do it, but I Tetris'd all of this stuff lined up behind the couch (except for the cats, obviously) into the Hyundai Sonata and drove it home. I didn't think I had much stuff left in the apartment. Turns out that I'm not a great estimater. 😂

It's bittersweet missing all of the friends I made, but this is where I need to be. ❤️

It's been a busy day.

It's been a busy day.

I decided after I slept so bad from the baby crying last night that I was taking Kelsey's room. (She's already gone home). So I spent the day moving stuff and going through stuff. I took about half of everything I have left here and put it in my car.

Now I have my stuff condensed down to the few things I have in the kitchen and bathroom, plus the few things I have here in my new bedroom. My old bedroom is totally empty and the living room is, as well. I'm going to deep clean them both so that'll be one less thing I have to do when they give me the ok to head home. I am so ready.

Oof.

Oof. A baby just moved in above my bedroom. They wake me up at night when they cry.

The situation here keeps getting better and better. 🙁
