I’m in a bit of shock after coming back from vacation last week. It’s not getting back to work, although the busyness of my day to day routine has been difficult to adjust to this week. (How did I manage with this much work and this many aggravations in day to day life? No wonder working people are always pissed off and cranky!) Rather, it’s the sudden onset of fall that has me in shock. Last week, I was lounging on a beach in 80+ weather in the Bahamas. This week, I’m dusting off my winter shoes, getting out socks, and pondering whether I need to grab that sweater or not on my way out of the door in the morning. As if a 6 a.m. alarm isn’t shocking enough, now I have the sudden onset of fall to adapt to as well.
It’s ok. I’ve made it through mid-week with only minimal anxiety attacks. Things are getting done, although it seems the ‘to do’ list keeps adding more items to it. Is this normal, or have things really picked up? People tell me a bit of both. We’re in the natural ‘winding down’ season of the year before the holiday rush. Wait, holidays? Is it almost that time too? Crap, Halloween is next week. Wait, that was a Halloween Themed Cruise I went on last week. And we go back on Standard Time a week from Sunday. There’s another shock coming, as if the shorter days haven’t been enough of a shock.
My point is that fall came suddenly to South Carolina, and I think my vacation made the shock worse. Two weeks ago, it was still summer and now suddenly – it’s fall. Two weeks ago, it was in the 70’s – 80’s. Friday, it will be in the 50’s. That, folks, is the climate in the south. Summer is here for six months and then suddenly – it’s gone. And didn’t even say goodbye. Although some peeps of warm days are possible through November.
You never know. All you know is that you don’t know. And isn’t that true of so many things in life?
One thing I do know is that finalization of Trigger is in progress. Look for that release soon.
That’s all today. I’m going to continue to recover from my post vacation/fall shock now. Have a great rest of the week.
Bye!
