Spring is here in all it's glory and the days are longer, more can be done yet I've sat back and found it hard to get motivated on this beautiful day because my heart is still hanging around in Australia. Was going through photos of the trip and laughing at the crazy antics of my family -  from the little ankle biters that belong to my cousins to my gorgeous Grandma who still at the age of 90 has the most beautiful smile. We got back from trip a  month ago and threw ourselves back into normal life - cleaning up the yard, hauling dirt and mulch, arranging for trees to be trimmed and cut down and all the while my husband and I were wishing we were in Australia, sitting at a coffee plantation or bakery, noshing on some scones and enjoying coffee - iced or otherwise and planning our days adventures.

But I can't dwell. I can't spend too much time in reflection because there is so much to be done. Our lovely airplane is out of her annual inspection so there are days of flying to look forward to. I've just signed up to share a booth in a new antique mall thats opening soon in our area so there is sewing, painting, crafting to be done. A few photo shoots with friends to plan. A house that needs endless work. And as I do each task, as I enjoy each moment, I will remind myself that Australia is always going to be there, waiting for us to return.
