Ate too. The Second
Yesterdays entry and report failed to achieve that velocity to escape or post. If there were a single particular reason, perhaps it will strike me here now in the next few moments so that I can record and share but WKs other than God.
The vacation Holiday continues and a reality check tells your writer that today is Friday and therefore cause or calls for some sort of MILD celebration. If for no other reason one day closer to heading for home.
Home, where the heart usually is literally and figuratively but not necessarily so in every case. One’s ‘heart’ is always where ‘one is’ in the space-time continuum in the strictest sense.
Home is where one’s toys are. Projects demanding or at least requiring one’s attention in some major or minor way. Again, most of the time.
Home is where one’s comfort stations exist. Areas where one can be at ease, find total relaxation in what the infidels loosely label conveniently nirvana and aspire, attest and perspire towards.
But as I only started to mention in the previous entry, this current location is light years from the cloud. The largest single battle being fought on any level is the one between mental and emotional forces. That fine line between sanity and happiness.
Coping, dealing and managing the comings and goings, both events current and distant on the time line must, MUST be treated as data points to be assessed, evaluated, validated and acted upon or reacted to.*
* - If necessary.
I shall abbreviate this lesson for lame and weak reasons all.
It is early and I am up before any of the other expedition team members except Mikey aka NG2. He is not the most cooperative NOR best source of planning or inputs. He runs, eats and poops and just keeping him quiet while the others ‘sleep in’ is the challenge of the moment. I would really hate to spank him at this hour and so early in the day but he can’t seem to sit still or remain quiet. Always into SOMETHING.
Still on the ‘bucket list’ is a half-day trip to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown. That could be today or next week before departing.
At trip to Awestruck, local cider mill and outstanding restaurante. MUST get s shirt this time.
A second visit to Ed’s at his log cabin in the woods will be better than the first visit in the ‘facility’.
So goes ‘vacation’.
