Day 27 - retreating, family style
We've run away to the mountains. Just me, The Man and the kidlets. We've come to where our phones have no coverage, the internet is hit or miss, and we've only turned on the tv once this week (to check the weather before an excursion). Our muscles are sore, our cheeks are wind whipped, and speaking at least for myself here, the 'cup' is slowly refilling after months of depletion. It's so nice to retreat from the 'real' world with the people I spend the most time with in that world. To reconnect with their laughter, their stories, their points of view. It's a beautiful thing to see each one of these people I love so much, away from the grind of the days...watching their worries slowly lift from their shoulders, and in turn...my own.
