The place God calls you is the place where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet.

It's Good To Be Home??

I thought I would be super excited to be home. Though I knew I'd miss the sun (oh, the sun!) and the hot temps, I also expected to be happy back in my own bed with my own pillow and my own routine.

Wrong.

The soggy-dog look, which I sported at the end of my run this morning sealed the deal. (Disclaimer: it wasn't raining when I went out!)

Do you think if I put on a pair of red shoes, click my heals together three times and say "I wanna go back" it will happen?

Well, you can't blame a girl for trying. (And it has been great to catch up with friends. I missed my friends!)

Fortunately, my mood was lifted when I opened my email to find out I'd won the Happy Find Blog contest yesterday. You should check out Venus' creations. She's talented and adds that little something to everyday, run-of-the-mill items. I've coveted her aprons for awhile so to win one was a thrill. After checking out a few down in the States and deciding I would come home and make one myself, this was even better! Thanks Venus.


Well, I guess being home isn't that bad.
