Back at It

In more ways than one. After a strict diet of cutting back of everything, my slipped/herniated disk is repositioning itself, I have been able to walk for more than a week straight and I hope that this is what on the mend is feeling like. I missed a family trip, spent my first weekend away from all of my boys ever, and actually slept for 8 hours straight. It was okay, but admittedly I was bored. This morning we adventured out and it felt so good.As you know, we live in a geographically challenging place for our souls, running water runs in all these boys veins and our ditch variety doesn't always cut it. But sometimes, when you really need to hear the flow of water over rock and you want to catch yourself a crayfish, it fits the bill. And fortunately we realize that this amazing place that we do live in can satisfy the desires of our whole selves.
