I woke up today...a bit confused
Is HAVEN over?
I was just getting warmed up...
am I home?
Yes, I am home.
Finally.
Yesterday, after packing it up,
having breakfast with the cousins and
The long 8 hour drive went into the night...
we got home at 11pm....
I had to make the kids ask me Oscar Trivia so I could stay awake.
back to my Old Country house and all of the things that make me
...well ME.
I have been processing the conference..
all the way home, all day.
So much to take in, assimilate, implement.
absorb.
JUST SO MUCH!
Things keep running through my mind,
bits of sentences...words of advice
....Mr Goodwill Hunting
telling us
...ideas shared, new friends made...
....laughter lightening the anxious air and
touching stories generously shared.
I am no where near ready to give
you a blow by blow and
I am not even sure that will be my goal.
I WILL
however share some things I learned,
people I met...
New skills I acquired...
I have BIG plans!!!!
For now anyway.... I will share my photos...many are
embarrassingly poor in quality
but they capture the moment.
I am not going to put captions....
The pictures will do the talking!!!
am I home?
Yes, I am home.
