Recharging...

Brynwood Needleworks - Great Smokey Mountains
 
You know we're home, safe and sound, but I'm not in the studio yet. When we pulled in the driveway on Thursday, the yard was begging for attention, so Handsome and I tackled that in time to beat the rains that fell the rest of the day.

Afterward, I took a shower, dressed, and got back in the car to go to see my Dad. If you're a person who prays, I'd appreciate some prayers for comfort for him. He's in end-stage cancer, and is comfortable right now. It's hard to watch your childhood hero being slowly taken away - and hard to see that man who loves life, fighting to hold on to it. While I do my best to stay strong for him, I'll admit this visit was difficult.

Today, I'm going to bake bread and pull weeds in the garden. I think it's just the therapy I need to clear my head and recharge my soul. I hope you'll enjoy the picture I snapped as Handsome and I drove away from the Smokey Mountains toward Florida. It reminds me that there is a greater being watching over us - and that brings me a sense of calm when I can use it the most.

Have a safe and happy weekend, my friends. I hope you choose to spend some of your time with loved ones, and some of your time doing something creative. I'll be back on Monday.
