A three-week cross-country road trip with The Teenager is my excuse.
I have found it difficult to start up again, not because I have nothing to say or note or write down.
This happened:
The Corn Palace, home of the best corn-shaped caramel corn EVAR. |
And this:
Feeding prairie dogs outside the entrance to the Badlands. Yes, we touched them. Yes, it was AWESOME. |
And this:
Me and ALL OF THE BOURBON at Buffalo Trace in Frankfort, KY. |
And in between, many numbers of things, some of which are documented in photography, and some of which floated past with car windows the only frame.
In the week since we have been back, I have earned my RYT-200 (yoga teacher) designation, and we have done school shopping. I got another lovely writing assignment and have coerced two people into testing my gluten-free pizza crust recipe.
In other words, life has intervened. I suppose I should be writing things down, but sometimes a break from recording every moment in words (and pictures) is necessary and good.
My brain is making space to process all of the things that are happening right now (or have happened in the past few weeks), and that is occurring as we settle back into a routine and focus on practical things, like guests coming to town, back to school, and finding patio furniture.
The cup is full, the time is flying. A break from the electronic tether was necessary and good, but I think I am back. I think. There never seems to be enough time, yet we all have exactly the same 24 hours as Einstein and da Vinci. #NotAGoodExcuse
How was your summer? Did you take a break?
