Chasing Horizons

I’ve been really feeling the weight of my responsibilities lately. It’s like they’re just hanging around, making their presence known. Today – an ex-client, in the middle of a full-on crisis, text and called with paranoid thoughts about someone out to get them. The thing is, even though our last interactions were a bit rocky, I felt a sense of gratitude that they still saw me as someone they could turn to.

But, you know what? On the flip side, I’ve been hit with this wave of not wanting to do a single thing. Seriously, it’s like a big “meh” feeling.

So, here’s the kicker: I was on a flight and binge-watched five episodes of Below Deck: Mediterranean Edition. And guess what? With all its drama and nice escapes, you have to know episode six is playing in the background as I type this.

But, here’s the other kicker: I feel like I don’t even know what I want to do with my downtime. Like, if I’m gonna do this whole relaxation and vacation thing right, what’s that even gonna look like? Right now, it’s all about writing, doing some soul-searching, and, you guessed it, catching up on Below Deck.

And as for tomorrow? Dave and I are gonna hit the road and head to Beaufort, South Carolina. It’s like a mini getaway where we plan to chow down on some good food and do a little sightseeing.

I’ve got this urge to read. I’m talking multiple books, just losing myself in them for hours. And I’ve got this craving to stroll into a store, taking in all the smells and textures. =

So, since this is my vacation, I’m doing things my way.

Catch you on the flip side, Jaclynn
