The travel week was every bit as long and crazy as I anticipated, and it has been amazing to be home for the last two days. I missed my space here, I missed my morning walks with Kita-dog, and I missed snuggling kitties at night.
Today I am trusting that I'll be able to get all of the things that are on my to-do list from now until around the 20th will, somehow (miraculously) get done. This week's hurdles: 2 veterinary appointments (The Girls on Thursday, Tucker alone on Friday) and a manuscript that is due on Friday. Sure, we can get this written...eek!
Today I am grateful for opportunities. Yes, I was feeling a bit overwhelmed when I left for Chicago with all of the obligations I had during the week. Somehow I managed to get to almost everywhere that I was supposed to be in a timely (for me) fashion. Somehow everything went just right. Somehow I left feeling happy and filled up for a bit.
Today I am inspired by friendships. I know that some of the reason I came home feeling happy and fulfilled had everything to do with reconnecting with friends whom I love and admire. Coming home to a completely unexpected gift from a friend managed to connect the dots between there and here. I am so richly blessed, and that keeps me going when I feel a bit unmoored.
