On holidays soon

One more day at work to go. Friday is a public holiday here (Anzac Day) and I fly out early in the morning. Just Thursday to get through at work. This week has been crazy mad. I’ve visited all the metropolitan campuses to give presentations to all staff on the improvements we released to the portal last week. Plus getting through all the work that I’d normally do during the next two weeks when I’ll be on leave.

But I’m on the home strait now. I can just imagine collapsing into my seat on the plane and just breathing a sigh of relief, finally able to let everything go. The travelling time is 24 hours so I’m going to be pretty exhausted by the time I get to Phoenix. I hope the jetlag doesn’t get me.

I feel so ready for a holiday. The timing is really good - this trip has been planned since last October before I even knew how busy things would be at work (although I had a suspicion) - and I’ve just about reached burnout point.

So now I’m finally thinking about packing and what I need to take with me. In some ways it still hasn’t quite sunk in that I’m off to the US for the first time. It is only a fleeting visit, ten nights, but a starting point to exploring the American continents. I’m sure I’ll return in the future.

The hotel has internet access but I’m not sure how often I’ll get a chance to post so it might be a bit quiet around Karma Web for a couple of weeks. I’ll be thinking of you all though. And I’m getting the opportunity to meet Bekki, who I met through WordPress at the beginning of the year. We hit it off as friends immediately and I am so glad that we are going to meet in person. I love my online friendships but it is nice to have face to face interactions as well.

I miss posting every day. I notice visits are way down too now I don’t blog as often, and comments have also dwindled - well of course - there is nothing new to comment on I do find that I am just too tired when I get home each evening to turn on the PC and write. I’ve been working back late and it is dark when I get home - I cook myself some dinner, read for a while, meditate and then fall into bed. My daily walk now takes place in the morning before work so I can walk in daylight.

Nothing exciting to report. Work is busy as I’ve said. Personal life has been quite busy recently too - and of course I am still happy with my new arrangement with P. That still amazes me but in a good way. I feel quite blessed by the universe at the moment and I can’t really ask for more than I have right now. Ok it still isn’t my perfect, ideal life but who ever gets that anyway? I don’t expect it anymore and am happy to be content with what I do have. And I have a lot.

I may get a chance to post again before I leave but if I don’t then I send you all blessings and hope you keep safe and well until I can catch up with you all again. You have my love.

Namaste
