Holiday Weekend

It was a great weekend. If any reader feels anxiety or stress, the solution may be to escape for a while to the mountains. I have to admit, that I just enjoy being there with nothing to stress. I spend the day laying in the sun, riding 4 wheelers, and enjoying cat naps in the cabin. I enjoy this time away from the world.

This particular weekend was great. I went exploring and found a cool lake. It had a mommy duck in it with 5 little ducklets swimming behind her. I found a few new trails to play on, but most of them were dead ends- because they went straight down a cliff. I was playing in the hammock with the kids, but after a few minutes of being wrapped like a mummy, I almost passed out.

One morning, it rained. It was amazing, it was unlike any rain I have ever seen. It just poured down, I ran outside for a second it find our puppy, and by the time I reached the covered steps I looked like I had just gotten out of the shower. I love to just watch it rain. It makes everything smell sweet and fresh, it looks beautiful. I just couldn't help but feel so relaxed that day.

I did have a few hours of unrest. On Saturday night I had a panic attack when my asthma started acting up. I couldn't get any air- no matter how many breaths I took in, my lungs wouldn't fill up. By the time this on set happened, it was around midnight and I had not packed my inhaler. I thought about trying to drive to my apartment, but it seemed like a stupid idea. So I just tried to rest in the cold basement. I went down to the pharmacy on Sunday and got an inhaler, and things were better after that.

It was nice to be away for the week. I am sure that there will be pictures to post soon, but for now, I am going to get back to work. Break over :)


Oh and shout out to my friend... he starts a new job today! Everyone think good thoughts- and wish lots of luck!
