The marathon begins

Our Christmas music “marathon” is off to an early start this year.

It’s usually not until the second week of December starts that I have the sensation of drowning in non-stop details and events, but here we are — barely reaching the end of November — and the feeling is already very much with me.

True, we just had a wedding, which doesn’t usually happen between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Of course, it was beautiful and inspiring. BUT…now that that’s done, it’s “all hands on deck” and “full speed ahead” to Christmas!

Clear sailing and full speed ahead

After a turbulent, convoluted, multi-week process, it’s a relief to have actually arrived at a decision.

True, it’s not what I want to do, but I can feel that it’s the right thing to do. Which means I can once again get all my energy moving forward in one focused direction.

That’s my hope, at any rate.

Full speed ahead!

Ramesha and I were both pretty groggy and more than a little spacey this morning.

In a word, we were feeling the after effects of nine days in a row of retreats and classes and Sunday services and organizing singers and spending time with friends and being deeply inspired. Phew!

All glorious, but also exhausting.

But life goes on. By afternoon we were dealing with vaccines (got my last dose of the COVID primary series — yay!), resolving phone issues, shopping for groceries, and this evening I finished a grant proposal for an exciting upcoming project.

And from here on out, it’s full speed ahead (and that includes preparing for my fast approaching healing retreat)!
