Empty nest leads to...

So this is the plan:

Continue excercise program

Work on Yale House

Blog once per week

Intentionally find alone moments, in the wild

Research education possibilities including political science, writing, theatre, environmental studies ( for the winter, spring)

Be more intentional about keeping in touch with family and friends

Dippety Do

I've been dragging myself around emotionally. It could be because my youngest has just graduated from high school and she is going to move away. Or it could be because it is summer and there hasn't been much sun, or I need a vacation, or I need something new to challenge me, or...

I was scheduled to facilitate a life skills workshop this afternoon. One woman showed up. One man showed up inebriated. I suggested he head on home. One woman checked in to say she couldn't stay due to a major conflict in a significant relationship. One woman phoned to say she couldn't make it. One man just didn't show.

My emotional dip seems insignificant compared to most of the rest of the world. So maybe I should just get on with living and stop mopin' about.
