Days 5- 7 of R&R...the story continues

I'd like to say I had ventured into London to entertain myself now that I had all this free time in my hands this week. It was not for a lack of planning or desire on my part...it is just that I found myself amazingly happy to just be at home.

It occurred to me that for the last 5 months I have not actually been able to enjoy being in the London house. For months, it was simply this place that I slept and showered in. Sadly, there is more truth to that statement than I care to admit. There are still a few unopened moving boxes, a few closets and cabinets to organize, and a few pictures, draperies, and chandeliers still left to hang. Sure, these types of small projects did in fact find their way onto my project list for these 2 weeks but in actuality, I have been quite content to just putter about and "be".

Could the Hachie Gal be evolving into a person who actually schedules downtime into her routine? Not totally, but I am a self admitted plan-aholic. Isn't that the first step on the road to recovery and full R&R?

And isn't step 2 about planning the 2 week vacation in September? Definitely.
