Ugh

Like many bloggers, I'm struggling to motivate and write since my whirlwind, two week holiday. Every time I scroll through my Christmas or New Year's photos, I find it hard to want to re-live and re-tell everything. So I'm not going to. At least not yet. The memories are fresh and vivid in my mind but I'm still a little too nostalgic. I loved seeing my family and friends but it made me realize how much I miss being near them. :( Overall we had a wonderful time in Dallas and Carmel/San Francisco and I wasn't ready to come back.
On a happier note, Mickai are here! We've been catching up with them since Saturday and are preparing for our Dublin trip. We leave this Wednesday and will stay through Sunday. Yippee!
