The Calm before the Storm

I’m currently In that manic “getting ready to leave for three weeks“ rush. My to do lists have to do lists. In the midst of all of that, here is a photo of the front garden of Pistachio House, what I like to call my “happy place“.

I took the photo yesterday afternoon while I took a moment to slow down, catch my breath, Utepils.

We leave tomorrow morning. I’m looking at my schedule (not to mention the piles of stuff all over the living room that we somehow have to get back into our packs) and I know that today will be another whirlwind. 

For the moment, however, it’s time for coffee and lauds.
