No worries.. I'm close to being caught up on my most important forums (MIFs?) so I'm actually thinking of heading to bed... eyes are kinda itchy, too, too much sunlight, not enough sunglasses, and I was so tired I was actually doing dropsies on the bus on the way home from work tonight. Sooo happy, though: tonight was the first night of a new lifeguard course, and they are a great bunch! Makes such a different in how a class drags along or flies.. and I think this will be a super-fun course :)

I lieft my mundane job in Jan for a more creative work life... performing and teaching hooping, designing and teaching knitting.. and then just still keeping up with doing the advanced aquatic courses that I enjoyed teaching as part of my old job.. but now I have the added benefit of not being responsible for half-dedicated staff...

Anyway, I hightly recommend it.. be an artist! Just do it, the universe will catch you when you jump!

And now, I jump for bed.. g'night :)

Good Morning!! Poor Zoom - I LOVE the anticipation of the event drawing closer every year. This is the part of the year that list making becomes an art.

I love the road trip itself - we always scream when we see the first obvious burners on the road - bicycles, water bottles, blue tarp shredding in the wind and making that noise..... ahhhh

DO NOT STRESS about that stuff. Bringing yourself in a great frame of mind is the best thing you have to give - anything else you accomplish is gravy.
