My friend Katie Q and her husband are relocating from Pennsylvania to California.  When she first shared the news with me, she explained they would be moving out separately due to work conflicts.  When she said she would be driving her car across the country she threw in “Do you want to come?”  It took me about 30 seconds to respond with a resounding YES!

Homecoming

Submitted by Damselfly

Hubby and I decided to do a road trip this weekend.  Our adventure would be to travel south to Virginia.  As some of you know, I spent some of my formative years in Virginia working my first job as a nurse.  I fell in love with the location and solidified my passion for nursing.

Comfort Zone

Submitted by Damselfly

As I have said before, I am a creature of habit.  I like my routines.  Even though I am a horrible dancer, my routines are well choreographed.  Each step is purposeful and allows me to roll through my daily tasks.  When I was working my “real job”, having a routine as a framework allowed me to hone my multi-tasking skills, which served me well.

Mortality

Submitted by Damselfly

This week a friend of a friend passed away quite suddenly.  I feel such a mixture of emotions when an event like this passes on to me.  When I was communicating with another friend about it, the topic of mortality came up.  We pondered how this loss affected us in how we see ourselves living our lives.

Mortality.

I started trying to recall how old I was when I realized I would eventually die.  It seems a morbid thought, but I think it is more practical than morbid.

Weddings

Submitted by Damselfly

The past two weekends have been full of travel and celebrations.  One weekend was a short road trip.  Long road trip another.  VERY long.  Both joyous occasions full of new experiences spent with wonderful people.

The first weekend of the month, we celebrated an outdoor wedding at a farm located just over an hour from the homestead.  It was a glorious summer day.  The setting for the ceremony was on the edge of a pond.  Our friends picked a fantastic location for bringing together family and friends.
