I have that post holiday euphoria that comes from feeding my wanderlust! Travel and adventure is food for my soul. In the pre-dawn quiet before the family awakes, my first cup of tea (after a week of drinking coffee) was delicious. Just being home, waking up in my own bed after a full night’s sleep (as opposed to staying awake until 2am each night watching the skies), sitting on my sofa in my PJs, stepping out into the garden to sunshine, birdsong and green shoots hinting at spring, these simple pleasures have made me happy.
But mostly, sorting through the photos from our trip, sharing them with friends and family (yes, via social media) and reliving the memories from our holiday made me happy to the core. The day is not over yet and there are still a couple more simple pleasures to look forward to: collecting the small people from child care (I’ve missed them today after a week together); a supper of red meat and fresh vegetables (sorely lacking this past week) and then settling down on the sofa with hubby, a bottle of Marlborough Sauvignon and a movie. Happy Happy Happy!
