I'm Back…although, not 100% sure that I'm happy about this?  :)  Just kidding….we did arrive back home on Wednesday in the wee hours and so I think Most of the jet lag is gone and I'm only left with residual effects of "Tropi Brain".  Apparently that's a mental state that is acheived in warmer, tropical climates that is evidenced by a numbing of the cerebral cortex resulting in a slower lifestyle and relaxed attitudes.  After the hectic April we had, I relished in the Tropi Brain and have been pouting and whining to everyone that will listen about wishing I was back, relaxing in Fiji.  Maybe it's being faced with mountains of laundry, stacks of paperwork, mine and my husbands. COLD WINDY WEATHER, and a defiant 6 year old that has spent too much time in front of the computer in the last few weeks that's making regret the return trip back.  AND  think part of the difficulty in accepting the harsh re-entry to reality is that I wonder if I'm kinda crabby because I really haven't stamped since the middle of APRIL?  You think that could be part of it?  or am I just plain old crabby…?

I'm slogging through my emails, voicemails and messages and I promise, I'm working on it as fast as my post-Tropi Brain will allow….Bear with me….

I did have Hostess Club this Friday and my "hostess friends" always are so fun to be with and so I did have to whip up a card for club….some of them had a little "problem" just scribbling with markers and weren't sure they liked the card.  (Hey, I'm out of practice, I haven't created since mid-April!) but I think I liked the casual "tropi-brain" feel of it and it reminded me that this stamp set and coordinating folder (found in the new catalog!) was a pillow gift one of the nights in Fiji!  Did I mention that we were treated very well and I loved Fiji?…

(Don't forget to get in touch with me as I have a copy of the catalog JUST for YOU! and it's free!)

So Enjoy…it really is good to be home.  No more whining for today, I promise!
