What I Love About Being Home

There are several things that I love about a weekend at home...

I love getting to see my family and be silly and goofy.

I love sleeping in my own bed, and not having loud neighbors wake me up at all hours of the night!

I love that I get to eat real food -- whether that be Cane's Chicken Fingers, Snowflake's Kolaches, a peanut butter sandwich, Cafe Adobe's fajitas, or sausage and homemade mac'n'cheese -- all foods I don't get in college station!

I love that after eating all that real food, I get claim to all the leftovers! My fridge and pantry is now loaded with chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip cookies, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Cheesecake Factory's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake, fajitas (well...they're gone now...) , and mac'n'cheese. YUM!

I love being able to watch re-runs of NCIS with my dad and brother.

I love getting to play with my puppy and take naps with her.

I love just talking with my mother. We didn't do that much when I was in high school, but now we both can just sit down and talk, and it's wonderful!

I love taking showers with hot water that doesn't turn cold randomly.

I love being able to throw a shirt in the washer, and not have to be antsy about when it will be done b/c I know nobody will be waiting on me to switch laundry.

I love having an ample supply of snacks always ready, and having multiple drink options.

I love how there is always a stack of mail waiting for me on my bed when I get home.

I love being able to play my music out loud instead of having to wear headphones.

I love parking 20 seconds from my house as opposed to 5 minutes from my dorm.

There are so many wonderful things about being home (just as there are about being here), and I always enjoy *almost* every second of being home!
