Back from Maine
Hi there!
I got back from vacation Tuesday night. I am so grateful I had a holiday up in the Maine woods. It was great to reconnect with family, and spend time on the lake. It's a family tradition that is an ideal break from urban life and heavy travel!
This year I was especially thankful for the break because reentry was pretty tough this time. Between friends of mine going through very hard times, and my own stress on varied fronts it's been difficult for me as well. My former boyfriend disappeared, leaving the four cats in the apartment alone for a week. Unfortunately he did not make adequate provision for their care, so they and the apartment were a mess! I am afraid that the stress of that week alone left the sick cat (lymphoma) pretty badly off. We shall see what the vet says.
It's a bit better here now, but I have to leave for Washington DC this afternoon, and I won't be back until late next week. I am getting a bit weary of the travel, but it will be much calmer come August 1. Wish me a peaceful rest of the summer!
