Today is the first day of August. I find it a little challenging to keep track of the days, but I needed to do some banking this morning to make sure the mortgage money was in my account, as it will soon be debited…
I am in Minnesota, and have been for the last four days. I spent a couple of days relaxing and recharging in a small, mostly deserted state park in SW Minnesota called Split Rock State Park. No Wi-Fi, although there was service.
I journaled and read, sunned myself on the dock of a little reservoir lake, and watched the muskrats going about their work.
I was unexpectedly contacted by an old friend I haven’t heard from in 30 years. It was a bit of delightful serendipity.
And now, a few days later, I am having lunch and a wine tasting at Four Daughters Winery. I passed it on the road, and of course stopped. Happy accident!
It sounds as if you are having some excellent relaxing days. Are you still wearing that trucker hat????
Relaxing is hard for me by nature, so I have had to specifically focus on slowing down. I have worn the trucker hat – though not every day.
I should have guessed that relaxing is hard for you, judging by the amount of things you can pack in a day. I admire that, although I couldn’t emulate it.
Haha! I have been learning to slow down on this trip. In order to keep up my stamina.
That sounds absolutely divine.
Yes!!
