Rae, we missed you! So glad you're home safely. I loved reading your post and seeing the pictures! I didn't end up with any clothes from my trip either, just a turquoise bangle. It sounds like you got plenty of kitty mementos instead, so win-win!
It's good that you have a day of rest, but don't be frustrated if it takes a week or two to feel fully like yourself again. Enjoy your own bed tonight. There's nothing like it, is there?
