I had this idea in my mind

that once I was home

in my familiar place

sleeping in my bed

making food in our kitchen

tending to our garden

I'd quickly settle

find my feet

click into a normal routine similar to what I was doing before we left

but seven weeks on the road

where we covered more than 6,000 kms

and slept in 21 different beds

bouncing between hotels and others' homes,

motels and my mother's home,

I feel a little more discombobulated than I was expecting.

I thought it would be easier than this

but maybe I just need to give myself another day or two (or three)

see a few mates, attend a parkrun and drink coffee at our local

and maybe it will all just click into place again.

At least the wallabies are still here,

in the bush near us

as if to greet me:

Welcome home.
