The end of vacation season

After driving to Washington D.C. and Destin, FL in a two-and-a-half week span, my vacation season has ended. It was fast and furious in D.C., but Destin offered nothing but sitting on the beach and watching the waves and the people. Both were great for their own reasons.

Now it's back to the old grindstone and I'm more than ready. The worst part of vacationing (especially two in the same week) is after you return. There are five days until payday and money is as scarce around here as raindrops. But the time and money spent was fun while it lasted and refreshing to the soul.

I'm looking forward to getting caught up on some paperwork at work, some new responsibilities at church, and Mrs. Uncommon possibly commuting to work with me in the future. We'll see how it goes in the coming weeks.
