I'm going to Louisiana at the end of the week. It's the summer thing where we take Chance down to visit his grandparents for a couple of weeks--happens every summer. Honestly, I'm looking forward to the break. The last couple of months have been one awful catastrophe after another and it hasn't really let up. I just need some time away, you know?
Of course, I also worry about how things will go in my absence, but I'm trying to thrust that to the back of my mind. I need the down time more than that. The house is sort of a disaster right now anyway. I don't think it will matter if it gets a little more messy. I'm already behind on several things. Another week or two isn't really going to make a difference.
Before I go, I still have a few things I have to square away, though, which is what I'm trying to get done in the next few days. Unfortunately, the holiday has made this difficult. I was supposed to go to the post office today but obviously that's not an option.
I'm tired of being stressed. And I'm tired of having to worry about everything. I just need a break. Just for a little while.
