Home is where the heart is

My very dear mother said this to me , " Home is where the heart is ". Among many other quotes I have always remembered her saying.
Ive been home at Fishery Falls now nearly 3 weeks , and my heart sure aint here. I loved this place , but now am having trouble settling back to normal (what the hell is normal) living .
I must somehow settle back into work . Although I always knew this would be hard, especially this time of year.
I have had thoughts of giving up the patios and doing some mine work again, then I can come home and go sailing . There is definately room for thought here.
Other than that , I have been back out on the boat twice , once overnight with Ashlee and her friend Kayci , and just last night with a few street people . By this i mean people who live in my street . We motored down to the river mouth about 5pm , then made the decision to head out for a sail for about an hour and turn around and come back. What a pleasure it was to have them all aboard , 10 people plus Hrauka and myself.
The swell was there a bit , but still comfortable to have some munchies and snacks on the table.
I think everyone enjoyed it and I hope we can do it often .
Anoher quote from Mum , maybe , " use it or loose it "
So come on all , lets get out there , and by doing so you are helping me get through the being home duldrums.
Cheers.
