(not necessarily in that order)
I’m pretty much over jet lag and starting to feel physically normal.
I’m also functional in terms of work — singing for Sunday service; catching up on emails; making decisions about Spiritual Renewal Week; and initiating new projects.
But regardless, I can’t seem to get the pieces of my life to fit back together. It’s a very strange and disorienting feeling.
I know there are parts of California with way more snow than this; nevertheless, it’s a ton of snow for Ananda Village. I’m finding it somewhat disorienting to be away from home during such a major weather event.
With still more snow in the forecast, it’s also a bit of a challenge to stay focused in the present and enjoy my retreat without worrying about whether I’ll be able to get home when the time comes.
It’s interesting, really, but having the bone marrow tranpslant behind me has been slightly disorienting.
I’m no longer heading to the hospital every day, plus there are less and less precautions to think about (hallelujah!).
However, I’m rapidly adjusting and very much enjoying having both time and energy — especially for planning our trip to Pacific Grove and our return to the Village.
