Tim headed back to the office today, and I’m trying to get back into some sort of semblance of a routine. I imagine it will take me a few days to get back into some kind of rhythm. I still have too many mounds of laundry and piles (piles of newspapers, piles of mail, piles of stuff we unloaded from the car that hasn’t been put up yet, etc) around to feel like things are calm, peaceful and back to normal. But that’s ok! We had a great time, and are glad to be home safe and sound.
We watched some of the news this morning about the subway and bus bombings in London today. So sad, especially considering they were jubilantly celebrating yesterday, after having been awarded the 2012 Olympics. I also heard that they have raised the alert level in a lot of our transportation systems here in the U.S., including the Metro in Washington DC that we rode constantly while we were there. I think I’m just a tiny bit glad that we went last week and are not there this week with all of this going on. I didn’t see a single dog or armed security person in any of the subway stations. We saw snipers at the White House and lots of security around The Mall on July 4th, but nothing out of the ordinary. I hope nothing else happens here, or anywhere else for that matter. I imagine it will, one day, somewhere, but I’m still hoping. 🙂
