Finally after being out to sea for two weeks for my job, I made it back onto stable land. I have to admit…it’s nice! Getting back to the house has been even better. Renee had been working hard for much of the time I was gone…but when I got back the house was pristine! She does such a nice job with things!

The only thing, though, that I had to worry about was the largely over grown lawn. It had apparently been raining the entire time I was gone and, as a consequence, my lawn grew like it was in the rain forest. Fortunately the lawn mower was able to chomp through much of it. But there’s little piles of mulched grass lying everywhere.

The being out of sea part of the last month went by like nothing happened. I was on a sub-surface nuclear submarine charting somewhere on the east coast. It was great to see everything in action…like a well oiled machine. After a while though I began to lose track of time on the boat. It’s most likely because after long shifts, it is troublesome to really gauge the time of day. Yes, clocks are there, but the light of the day works hand in hand when really feeling out what time it is. But with that over, now comes the getting back to the grind at work. I have a lot of stuff I need to get done in the next few months. Hopefully I can get a leg up on it sooner rather than later.
