In 41 hours we'll be landing in Boston bound for Portsmouth, NH to linger for the morning with friends and friendliness before heading to Squam Lake for 5 days of creative goddess hedonism!
I'm up, secretly blogging while everyone else sleeps. This is not to say that I'm not practicing self-care, though I'd best be hitting hay soon. I've been taking care of myself this week by asking for help-with Blue, with children, with food, when I need to talk to a good friend who knows just what to say, with washing machines that won't spin. I've been opening, stretching..opening a little more and receiving. So hard for some of us to do! But so worth it to realize that those around me genuinely want to help...ME.
Thank you all for your kind words about Blue. Today was a good day, one of treats and frolicking on the lawn with her buddies and roaming around the inside of the house, sniffing the stove and begging. Knowing we have limited time with her has brought up so much conversation around here...life is short. This we all know. And yet something shifts unexpectedly each time it happens, does it not? Something so simple like a lifecycle can have deep and jarring impacts each. different. time.
I'm so grateful for my life, for my time here. And for YOU.
