Greetings, all! I’m home, after driving 3,400 miles to and from Minnesota, for the first real vacation I’ve had in a long time – too long, in fact.
What I do for work isn’t important for several reasons. Yes, it’s in the food industry, but no, it’s not very creative. I’m a manager, and suffice it to say that more and more has been demanded of me, and I blithely soldiered on for months and months.
When I finally took vacation earlier this month, I was mentally, physically, and spiritually exhausted, riding the razors edge to serious burn out. So with M’s blessing, I went to see our tribe in Minnesota – our brothers and sisters from different mothers.
There I rested, cooked, played music, and soaked up the love and support from these wonderful souls. I’m back, and much better, but not healed by any sense of the word. I have a different perspective on work now – one that puts my health and happiness first – and that’s gonna be that.
All that said, I want y’all to know that here is where a large chunk of my creative heart lived and shall live going forward. And so I wish to thank you all, deeply, for stopping in and seeing what I’m up to, trying things, asking questions, letting me know what you dig and what ya don’t. It means a great deal to me.
Thanks for understanding my lack of posts for the last couple weeks. I’m back, and on we go!
