What A Vacation!
It had been more than 5 months since I'd seen my granddaughters who live in Colorado. Over Memorial Day weekend we spent time at their home on the eastern slope of Pikes Peak just a few miles from Garden of the Gods. The girls are “almost 4, Happy Pappy” and “I'm two, Gran.” Their energy abounds.
I want to honestly admit that I needed this vacation. The demands of the past few months were great and I could tell that my “gas tank” was running on fumes. I didn't sleep in one time, even though I was tired. Why? My “empty” was not related to sleep deprivation; my “empty” was related to energy depletion.
Being around the girls, experiencing their zest for life, and all the spoiling that Gran and Happy Pappy are privileged to provide “filled” my tank; I'm so grateful to work in a place that grants me time for renewal, for discovering energy in new ways.
Time to get to work! Gotta run! Until soon, friends.
