Wow, I was gone for almost three weeks which flew by in so many ways yet seemed like eternity in others. I am a home-body. I know this about myself so it is no surprise I love being at home, in our garden, at the lake cottage, shopping at the farmers market on Wed's and Sat's, being a member of the co-op, driving the least amount, my Yoga class for those with special needs(Yes, brothers hold off on jokes for now !!!) P.T. and all the things I love here. I also am so comfortable in my bed and in my own healing surroundings as if we tailored the entire home for my health care needs.It fits. Douglas says the same. We live in a very peaceful environment and we love it.
Missing family and friends is the toughest part of it all. I so enjoyed the breakfasts and lunches with loved ones. The serendipitous moments were great too. I went with no agenda and left with a full calender of meetings, dates and events which were filled with joy and memories of a life past lived. I still am happy to say I made the right move at the right time.....Minus the total breakdown of Michigan's economy. I still feel at peace with it all.
For those of you whom I did not get a chance to see please understand I had to pace myself like a snail and was in bed most nights by dark. I had many days when I was unable to get out and be sociable. Some days due to pain from city walking on brittle bones and some from just being someone with lupus on vacation. Accepting the flow helps tremendously, yet I missed seeing so many people !!! Next time if you will still have me?
Garden is still kicking out peppers, greens, root veggies in process, herbs, beans and even tomatoes. Thanks to all who picked, watered and checked on things while gone !!!!! I am glad some food went to bellies not waste. Everything looked great. Today I made an awesome pesto for fall and a batch of fresh tomato sauce. MMMMMMM.
I realize that no matter where you are you are there. It is your home for that time period and sometimes you move on. For now I am "HOME" and home is where the heart is for this moment in space.........Or OM is where the heart is Bros.......I hope you all had a wonderful September and will continue to enjoy our global warming fall !!!!
Hugs
