USUALLY IT'S THE OTHER WAY AROUND...

I can't help but smile as I think about our trip to Mexico recently. Not because it was an amazing getaway. Not because the island is my second home on this little round globe. And not because it was an escape away to paradise or any of the other typical vacation-y jetsetter responses.

I can't help but smile, because for once it was the other way around. I wasn't the girl crying in the airport because I had to go back to my midwest life of mediocrity as I left the Rivera Maya (I'm one of those people who daydreams about running away to the equator, opening an amazeballs bed and breakfast, and living the life of a professional heliophile).

It was the other way around. I was actually excited to get back home. During the trip, I had to tell myself to stay in the moment and enjoy it. I kept thinking about all of the things I was excited to get back home and start working on. And for once, that was refreshing.
