Next Time I Consider Leaving for Two Months...

Remember:
1) Mold growing in the shower
2) Dust on everything- including the vacuum
3) The sadly wilted and scorched garden
4) Dead mint in the windowsill
5) Jungly bushes (which took an entire day to cut back)
6) Black moldy cherries in the fridge (I mistook them for blueberries)
7) Extra elbow grease required to scour sinks, tubs, and toilets
8) Musty basement smell
9) Profuse spiderwebs
10) Loads of laundry (sheets, towels, clothing)

And Don't Forget:
1) How good it feels to be back home
