We used to pay a lot to go on a retreat, a place apart from our regular lives, maybe organized by some leader or group or another, with meals provided, new places to sleep, new people to interact with. At least I did that a few times, and was so pleased to bring home what I'd experienced for a few days at least.
For the first few days of social distancing, I think this felt like that. Then I was sick for a few days. While that happened, I kept wondering if I would get worse and would I have "retreat" in medical settings. Then I woke up one morning feeling fine again.
Yesterday I drove around in nice 80 degree weather, with the car's window down. A lot of pollen in the air from the blooming trees! I came home to cough it all out over the next few hours.
One of the older homes in my area...right up the hill off N. Blue Ridge Rd. a turn to the left onto Taylor Street. The sign says "Peaceful Hemlock, Est. 1937, 100 Taylor St.
80 degrees eh? I think I would like that for a day. By this time of year, we often have warm (but not that warm) days (one or two anyway), but not this year yet.
ReplyDeleteHello, the weather sounds great to me.. I am not one that can stay indoors for long, taking a walk or even a ride is relaxing and peaceful. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDelete...yesterday we went on a field trip to the post office to drop some letters in the outside box!
ReplyDeleteI'm all for "peaceful", but "hemlock" seems a rather drastic route to take!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're able to get out and about and you're enjoying some pleasant weather.
I guess you got some nice warm weather. It's in the 50s here.
ReplyDeleteStay safe!
