Well, work has been tough..and by work I mean my life because sometimes they blend together or are one of the same. But oh child, things are going to get better. I'm glad I do have at least a few amazing people around me to teach me the true meaning of strength, respect, dignity, and what it means to work hard.
In one week I worked a 15 hr day, slept for 4 hrs, work 21 hrs straight (half hour break), slept three and worked another 13 with a schedule that continued something like that. In the same week I jumped into Bartlett Cove freezing waters in Glacier Bay, tried to collect water from the Hole in the Wall waterfall, learned how to bake, explored different towns, and saw countless amounts of Orcas.
Breaking down is not an option, its too difficult to let family down. Sleeping is not always an option, there is not enough time in a day and too many amazing moments to miss.
Its interesting to be apart of our own little society, boat life, and sometimes I wonder if this is the path I should be following, if this is where I am supposed to be. As far as I know, there is nothing else I would prefer as of right now. But thats just it, its just right now and things change much quicker than anyone can realize.
There has been so much on my mind that I can't sleep even more than I already don't have time for. It's one more step to get to that next street. There are a million streets.
Hope everyone is doing well, I miss summer and people!
