Get Out of Town

The past year has been a real nose-to-the-grindstone, all-work-and-no-play sort of year. I started a new job, Ben had professional exams (a lot of them!), and we had some debts to pay. So all our money and all our time was spent on things we had to do and not things we wanted to do.

Suddenly, it feels like the clouds have parted and the year-and-then-some of no fun has come to an end. I have antsy energy and a desire to start a million new projects all at once. The one I am starting right away is leaving town - I am leaving the city every weekend from now until it snows. I don't even know where I'm going!

Anywhere but here. I'll keep you posted...
