Staycation!





I've been on vacation this week. For the first time in memory I didn't travel anywhere for my week off. It's not that I don't want to hang with family, but finances didn't permit it this time so I've had a quiet week here in old San-Antone'.

If there was ever a perfect week to have days off down here, this was the week! We are just coming out of a reasonably wet winter and so things are green and pretty and the "famous" Texas wildflowers are out in force! Last year was so dry and brown and dead that I was convinced that this city doesn't know how to look pretty, but I've been proven wrong -- thankfully!

I've spent the week running, biking, napping, eating, reading, writing, socializing, visiting the temple, etc. It's all been very cathartic. I don't want to go back to work on Monday, but at least I don't feel like a need a vacation from my vacation.
