Better part of 22 days running,

1500 mile road-trip on the front end,

Lots of parenting, lots of work, uptick in charity hours, Common Cold all the while.

Too many, too much depending to step off, too much in the clutch to beg-off,

But making it to now, and a perfect transition day with one of my kids and and a school field-trip, brought me back to neutral,

And now the full weekend solo, for more sleep and clean up and catch up and fix up and self care and just me,

Feels somehow selfish even with all the primer, but self-care and reset it shall be,

GOOD.
