I'm just back from a mini-vacation to Lake George with my girls and granddaughters. We drove up to Lake George, NY on Friday morning and came back on Sunday afternoon. The last time I was there was with Mike...on the weekend after Thanksgiving...maybe 2006. Odd that it would be Thanksgiving weekend. Odder still that I didn't feel emotional at all. Oh, I thought about stuff...like here is the hotel we stayed at...here is where I walked in the morning...here is where we ate dinner. Without sadness.
What I felt instead was complete and utter joy. I was so happy to be with my girls and my "littles." I woke up every morning to the sound of the water lapping at the shore and the birds at the feeder outside my window. We went boating, and shopping, and suntanning. We ate fantastic meals and watched the sunset.
I felt joy! Happiness! Serenity! Peace! I'm living again. Finally.
