Decompression...

I am back, and it will take some time to soak in and digest all the teachings of the past week. Some were wonderful lessons in photography, and others were sobering lessons about myself. Silence, solitude and my sweet husband are restoring me.

And a senyru from Shaman...

Rest up, and see you around, Wizened.

Peace out!

Welcome back.

"Sobering lessons about myself?"

Oooh! Dish the dirt, girlfriend!

Oh girlfriend Craig… I am back but have climbed a tree to hide from the world for a time. Don’t worry – things are okay, or at least somewhat okay, and I hope to soon write a blog entry that will explain my current funk. “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…” It was the sum total of the experiences of the past week interwoven with experiences and emotions long buried, combining to cause me to - among other things - beat myself up a bit. I’m sorry I’m not ready to explain more yet. Suffice it to say that vanilla isn’t my flavor, uneventful does not describe my life, and you would not likely use the words calm, balanced, unemotional, or organized to describe me. Add stress (which I expected), being part of a group (also expected, but not something I’m used to), and Murphy’s Law, and you begin to understand why I am up in this tree. Sorry I can’t explain better yet.

What a beautiful pic for you to share with us, Wiz!!! The colors of those autumn leaves are incredible, especially as muted as they are.

Hope the decompression goes gently. Looking forward to hearing how things went and seeing you around regularly again.

Welcome back, my friend. Take your time recovering, re-energizing, and enjoying the silence, the solitude, and your hubby.

I'll be here to read whenever you return.

Welcome back! I hope most of the lessons you learned were good ones.

I'm new here, just glanced and read some of the employment office series and looked at some of the beautiful photos and I'm getting a sense of who you are.

Your post here and your comment about your trip sound very familiar to me in a way. I hope you get to feeling better soon. I'd like a chance to get to know you via blogging and I care about my fellow bloggers so - be good to you and know folks are out here caring and concerned for you.

Peace, love and understanding.

I have missed you! Enjoy your solitude:)

Well, you might as well gather some acorns while you're up there.

Winter's coming, you know...

If I could only be in a canoe in the middle of that lake right now. Beautiful. Take care of yourself while you're going through whatever "stuff" has come your way.
