Packin' Up Headin' Out

Yesterday Pete and I were at odds and I had to get away. I packed up my kids and our snow gear and headed to the mountains in the middle of a blizzard. I bought snow tires on my way out of town but they were too small so a kind and friendly mountain man decked out in Carhartt towed us up the hill to the cabin.

I have no cell service and sporadic Internet so I probably won't be sending any emails. Sorry about that.

I am going to build snowmen, go sledding, do puzzles, read books, watch movies and play board games.

And try to cope with the hole in my heart and knot in my gut. Have a good weekend all.

PS The mountain man just stopped by and gave me some new chains to get me down the mountain. God bless that man.

  1. While my heart aches for you, for where things are that require some distance and some escape -- I'm totally fist-bump proud of you for just picking up, claiming some space and time for yourself and your kids, and just getting up and out and away and enjoying nature and the snow. Hugs.

  7. LOVE YOU! I want to follow suit, but bringing kids seems like it would negate the peace & quiet.... I hope it brings peace and quiet to your soul!
