Sam and I went to the park for a test geocaching run before his upcoming bd on Sunday…. we had a good time struggling with understanding what the heck the GPS meant during our search; and found the two caches we went looking for.

Was down for a bit - work exhausted me, drained me, and I had nothing left for the blog. What saved me, what cleared my head lately, and brought me back up to where I usually am, was a week out of the office on vacation. When I looked back, I discovered that the last time I had taken a full week out of the office was back in August of 2007. That’s a REALLY long time - here I was trying to figure out why I was in such a funk, and the answer was really simple and there all along. I took the last week of May out, and make beads and gardened until my hands ached. I literally dug myself out of the funk I was in. It’s funny, even the folks at work noticed that I’m much more mellow as I returned to work this week. One person told me in the kitchen that I looked really relaxed and tan and just plain happy. I’d have to agree!
Been raining today, and I still have a ton of more work I want to do in the gardens, but I went outside and took some shots to show off my blooms! (I’ve planted some PURPLE roses that haven’t yet bloomed…… I can’t wait to see them - I am a purple fanatic!) So, enjoy, and maybe, if you have time, and need a break, go outside and plant something…..it really helps.
