The older I get, the more I just want to be home in my own bed.
My husband's niece and her husband are always so welcoming when we're in Arkansas, but it's so good to be home.
The 2,000 mile round-trip drive, plus the emotional stress of my mother-in-law's funeral was exhausting.
I'm thankful for a safe journey and we did enjoy some good fried catfish at Shorty's Restaurant while we were there.
Looking forward to a long night's rest, hopefully. Good night, guys...hope y'all rest good too.

@1creekgirl No, we are lucky not to have serious health problems, but I know that we both never sleep well when we travel.

Are there health problems that bother you more when you're away from home? I know I never sleep as well anywhere else but in my own bed.

@1creekgirl If I don't have to consider the difficulty to apply for a tour visa, I like to travel Europe, USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

It really was stressful, but so thankful we could be there and even more thankful to be home.

Thanks, I did get a wonderful night's sleep last night. Even the nicest hotels can't beat our own beds.

@1creekgirl exactly. I love the corner of my bed means my place where I sleep. It's always comfortable

That is true. East, West home is best. I felt that way when I was in the US on holiday. I just wanted to get back

Thanks, hope you had a safe trip home. I bet you enjoyed your visit with your grandmother. I slept late this morning which was really nice.

I just did the big ride home from Florida so I know exactly how you feel. It is nice to be able to sleep in your own bed.

I like to go away 4 or 5 nights at a time but love coming back to my comfy house. Glad you made it back safe.

First, I'm sorry for your loss. And second, yes being home is usually better than being somewhere else. Least to me too. Enjoy your rest!

Thanks. No matter how small or how large our home is, there's just no place else that is as comfortable.

I guess long trips get harder on us the older we get. We usually fly, but this time we didn't know how long we would be there.

Shorty's is a little cafe out in the country with the best fried catfish in the world. Wish it were closer!

There were parts of it we enjoyed, like the delicious catfish and being with my husband's niece.
