Settling Back In

Sisterchicks.Going Home. Chennai Airport.
Well, it's now Saturday evening and I'm feeling okay, at last. It's been a huge week and I haven't understood anything that I've been going through. When I left Chennai last Saturday night I was ready to be home and so refreshed. I had an amazing 10 days relaxing and discovering India. On returning home I was filled with happiness. To spend time with Megan and the family was wonderful. To go off for a night to a resort, just Megan and I was extremely indulgent and very relaxing. We felt like princesses, that off course we are .

This week has not been what I expected. I thought I'd have 10 days overseas and return home relaxed and full of energy. NOT. I have been so tired, maybe exhausted. Anxiety has been flowing through my body, for God only knows what reason. I don't have to feel stressed about anything. I am blessed to live in a great country with everything at my finger tips. My family is fantastic and they love me. I have great friends and a great job. So what's with this feeling. I don't know, I only know that I'm starting to feel better. To the people who love me and have been supporting to me this week, thanks. I love you all. You knew that anyway, I'm sure.

My thoughts on Megan and her family's life in Chennai;
To be living in India so far away from Australia is an awesome experience but the country is so trying. People hear things like, driver and maid or house keeper and think luxury. Now, go there and try to do it for yourself. I couldn't do it and I'm so proud of her efforts. To all of them I say, well done guys.

  1. Heh Princess Chez, You forgot to add my personal pedicure girl, lol. Yes, it is hard at times, but we also remind ourselves that we are so lucky to have this opportunity and to have our wonderful staff who make this experience easier. It is such a great way to learn to be grateful for the lives that we have.
    Glad to hear you are feeling better. I too have been as flat as a tack this week. Exhaustion would be the best way to describe how we have both felt. Too much shopping???? Never..
