Hitting the Road

This is going to be a quick one.  This morning I'm packing up a duffel bag and hitting the road.  I'm on a mission, searching for the sparkle...and my mojo.  It's the perfect sunny winter morning for a road trip. Nature has provided a little sparkle to get me on my way.






Each day a little more returns, but I'm looking for a wave, a flood of the good stuff to wash over me and leave me all shiny and new.  I'm tired of the slow trickle...I'm ready to swim deep in the water, submerge myself and wash ashore tired, but renewed.   Whewww that's alot of imagery.  I hope it helped:)


So for the first time in ...ever...I'm leaving my entire family behind.  I need to focus and feel, have 100% adult time with my bro and best friend.  It's going to be amazing, I can already tell.  But it will be hard.


I will miss these faces.

And the hilarious things he spends so much time doing.


Over and over...set him up and knock him down.  Then "are you okay?  Sorrrrryyy."


And I am taking a 4 day weekend with no regard for what needs to be done at my home.  Like the mountains of laundry or the winter projects that have been sitting on my desk since November. 







But this is just as important as any of those things...actually much more.  I am searching for the spring in my heart, the new and fresh start after a long, long winter.







I'm going to soak in the love of my grandparents and "brosins."  Talk about new babies that are coming and summer vacations on the farm.  I'm going to forget about work and unfiled taxes and just...be.  


Don't get me wrong, things are good, more and more each day, great even.  And there are some changes on the horizon that are so exciting, it's all I can do to keep my feet on the ground!  But that is for another blog:)


This is going to be a recharge weekend, totally plugged into the monster love my family provides, with nothing to drain me.  Not even the good kind of drain, when I  pour all of myself into my babies.  Nope, 100% plugged in and recharging.


I <3 going home.










I'll be back mid weekend to share some of the love!
