home.

thinking: the ability to do so is incredibly liberating.. and such an extraordinary hindrance. i've been having a horrible time lately discerning how much thought is neccessary on any given subject.. over-thinking can be just as bad as not thinking at all. my morals were tested and trampled the other day at work, and i'm just feeling ultimately worn down. enough with the life lessons. i'm tired. so this morning i opened the restaurant and worked lunch, then got in the car with ave and meghan and headed east.. all i have is 24 hours but i'm overdue for some farm lovin.

i haven't been home since christmas. and before that, august - recovering from my year away. before that, it was the summer previous.. i can't believe how few and far between my visits have been. i feel like a conscious weight has been lifted.. i felt it shifting as soon as i got in the car. i really needed this..

just relaxing and enjoying a glass of mom's vino.. had a jump in the pool and a quick hot tub before a home grown dinner and visits with ken, helen and clan. got to meet the precious new addition, fynn. what a doll. dessert, even.. and coffee, followed by a wild quad ride with laura. didn't last long because once we got out on the gravel road the mosquitoes were so thick we needed goggles..

tomorrow holds endless possibilities. a good dose of the prairies.. refreshment is imminent.
