Dearest Diary,
There are few things more extraordinary than returning home after a long sabbatical. I am utterly content at the achievement. I was fortunate on the journey to visit with Col. Raven over a delightful confection and to return to Lady Pigeon as quickly as possible. Following such a late arrival last night, I was even able to return to the schoolhouse this very afternoon. There seems to be much to be done and very little time before the children return. I am eager for the fall lessons to commence. It should be a much less hectic beginning as there are only the little ones to consider. For the first time in a year I shall not have the added pressure of presenting lectures at the university. (Although it is entirely possible I shall recommence in the spring).
There is yet another destination on the morrow that ought to assist in reducing the guilt of the past fortnight. I have done little else in that time but sit motionless in a carriage and dine on the most extravagant dishes. It is a wonder I have not ballooned to ridiculous proportions. I shall rectify the situation on the morrow...
