I’ve been mulling over this blog post for weeks. What to say, how to say it, of course how
much is enough how much is too much? Oh
well, let’s just get into it.
I’m back in California!
This is comfortable in some ways; certainly familiar. It’s about 69 degrees out this morning
(around 11am); while in Illinois it’s supposedly 96 plus humidity. Personally, I will not miss the wet
heat. Swimming to your car and weather
that mimics a steam room? Thanks, I’ll
pass.
Squirrel friend in Mount Prospect does not like the heat either. |
Living with Daniel was amazing and we had a really good
run. There are oodles of things I’m
going to miss, but ya know, life goes on.
I do highly recommend the soul searching you can do while
driving alone from the Chicago area to Southern California. It’s sort of like the meditation you can do
while knitting. Your hands and eyes are
busy, but your mind can wander to things you need to deal with. It’s also nice to know that you have loved
ones waiting for you.
After two full days of driving I ended up visiting Kevin,
his mom and Sam in the Reno area. Sort
of fabulous the kind of healing you can do while getting sunburned and saddle-sore
from trail rides. Also, it was a
wonderful chance to foist off some knitted items on them before continuing down
to familiar territory.
