A little bit of Drifting.
Since arriving at my sister’s house I have spent most of my time drifting. This is partly due to the fact that I finally caught the nasty bug that laid my kids flat one-by-one over the past two weeks. Fortunately I had a much milder version that only involved lying limply on the couch and sleeping a lot. This is much better than the version which required the constant companionship of a pot for 12-24 hours.
So I slept for large pieces of yesterday. I’m feeling much better this morning. Feeling better is good, but I’m still not feeling motivated. I intend to drift through today paying attention to my kids and reading stuff. Today I can be a jellyfish. Tomorrow I have to be back in action mode so I can a pack the car and we can all head onward to Seattle. In Seattle there will be places to go and things to do every day. I’m looking forward to new things and new places, but it is nice to curl up today in the comfort of familiar and just drift a little.
