Back in the USA, just in time for the eclipse!
I was so tired last night after I got back to the states, but Iā€™m proud of myself, I stayed up until about 10pm and then it was lights out! I think 10p is pretty good for 17 hours of travel! Crashed about 10p, up at 4a, what?! Not cool! I refused to get out of bed, so I stayed putā€¦until about 630/7a, it was so good to snuggle deeper into the covers, and to be in my childhood bed, secure and safeā€¦

London Day 6: Crown Jewels, The Thames, Chinatown, Six!
We start with an 8am alarm, thatā€™s not too bad, we woke up with the sun, which is better than the alarm, but the alarm kept us honest! Start with breakfast, we gave ourselves two hours to get breakfast and get an Uber to where we were going. First stop of the dayā€¦The Tower of London! We had 1030am ticket times and we got there at 1022am, walked right up and in, it was perfect! The first thingā€¦

Landed in London about 9am, went through customs, no stamp! What?! They do that now, they have machines that you can put your passort in, it takes your picture and you are good to go.

Step two...get to the airport!
Thatā€™s what dad did! Got up, got some work done, then went to breakfast with dad. It was a repeat of last night, eat, talk, laugh, repeat. Always a good time. We really seem to enjoy each otherā€™s company! Back to the house, get some more work done. Ran an errand with dad, back to the house, he got some rest and I helped a new co-worker get set up with the applications sheā€™s going to beā€¦

Step one... get to dad's
And here I am! Finished work, gave the dogs lots of hugs, got some kisses, put them in the crate, turned on the radio, loaded the car, called PSM to tell him I was off, and Annie and I were on the road! The ride to dadā€™s was uneventful, I stopped for some Muscinex DM and cough drops, did some planning with SDL, put on a podcast and all was right with the world. I didnā€™t hit traffic until I wasā€¦

I've learned something about myself. And Happy Spring!
Ok, I sort of knew this, and itā€™s not always applicable, butā€¦I do better blogging sitting up at a desk or a table than in bed with my laptop propped on my knees. Iā€™ve said it, itā€™s out there. When Iā€™m sitting in a chair, Iā€™m more focused, when I am laying or lounging in bed, I donā€™t seem to focus as well and let my mind wander, which is a good thing for me, thatā€™s where I get my inspirationsā€¦

Mother Nature...seriously?!
Itā€™s Spring, right? Well, technically tomorrow is Spring, I know, but weā€™ve been having Spring weather for a bit, some chillier days thrown in here and there, maybe a colder morning, warmer afternoon, but itā€™s Spring, right? Another way I know itā€™s Spring, Iā€™m sneezing my head off, allergies are in full effect, Iā€™m taking my flonase, but I canā€™t stop sneezing and saying ā€œI hate Springā€, ā€œI hateā€¦

A meeting, brunch, a mud sale, a new brewery
Itā€™s Saturday, why did I have to wake up first at 2am, no idea. I fell back asleep, thankfully, then woke up close to 7a, in a slight panic, why didnā€™t my alarm go off?! Oh yeah, itā€™s Saturday! Wahoo! I went downstairs, the dogs had stayed out, meaning out of the crate, so about 730a, I went downstairs and whispered to them, ā€˜who wants to snuggle?ā€™, you donā€™t have to ask twice! They cameā€¦

Spring has sprung!
It was beautiful today, I think Spring has sprung! Just like yesterday, I had to get on the bike, oh yeah! Well, first, I only needed a hoodie when I took the dogs for a walk around the block, a glorious morning. Then it was home to take a quick shower and get ready for work. Oh, did I mention that being that Spring has sprung, there is new life all around us. I havenā€™t seen any baby ducklings,ā€¦
