I came back yesterday after working in France for a week as a Charpentier.
The grass needs cutting, the weeds are running wild, the chickens need cleaning out and no fairies have been in and finished off the living room for me, but it's still good to be back and great to see my wife, bump and little girl again after spending a week away. 
Although I don't like being away from them, it's sometimes does you good so then you don't ever take them for granted.
Somehow, you don't strike me as the type that would EVER take them for granted!
ReplyDeleteI don't but it's always nice to remind yourself of what I'm working so hard for!
DeleteYou are so right - 'absence makes the heart grow stronger' - it is always so nice to come 'home'.
ReplyDeleteIt was good to get home. I don't know how people do it for months on end
DeleteI'm sure everyone is glad you are home too!

I hope so!
DeleteWell....Back to work! :-)
ReplyDeleteYep straight away! Well after a sleep or two...
DeleteI spent half my life away from my family. The job in Uganda lasted eight months! Man, I was always glad to get back.
ReplyDeleteNot sure I could do it for eight months sounds like a lifetime!
