Center...Clarity...Peace...Serenity...
I'm in need of all these. It's been a long week, but I don't know why. Nothing particularly stressful at work or at home. I just feel a little off. My back is all knotted, I'm not sleeping well. I am tired of TRAFFIC, tired of long days, tired of everything and nothing at the same time. I think it's because I haven't had a vacation for awhile; haven't taken more than a one-night trip in a long time. I feel the pull of wide open spaces...it's time to lose myself in the middle of nowhere, in the midst of trees and water and the sound of loons...
3 more weeks, and we're headed to Lake Vermilion. Here's to holding out.

You're always welcome to come down to Dubuque for some R & R!!
I hear you! I am counting the days until I leave for Baltimore- no kids, no schedules- heaven:) Can't wait to see you in a month!
I know why you were down this week. Your old Dodge Spirit finally died. I know you have fond memories of Spirit form your college days in Iowa City. Sometimes refered to as the 'evil spirit', right? I even took pictures of it as the junk man hauled it away. Maybe it will be recycled into steel to build a bridge over a small stream on a hiking trail someplace in nothern Minn....with the sound of loons in the background, a bald eagle swooping down over the water catching a fish to feed her young.....
Yes, the "evil spirit" or "Christine" (Stephen King reference). She finally [totally] broke, eh? Maybe that was it. I hope she is put to a good use like that!
