Travel days...

17 July 2022: Travel days like today (I left NY at 9:30, made it home by 3:30) always strike me with how different opposite ends of the day are. Woke up in my very first childhood bedroom on a twin bed, with my brother's old dog sleeping on the floor next to me. I had breakfast with my parents, Erin, and the girls and then hit the road. Thirteen hours later, I am in my own home, with Wes and Veronica, having  unpacked, done some laundry, mowed the lawn, and shifted back into "normal." I haven't had a really good night's sleep in several days, so I am hoping to sink into slumber easily tonight and get back to writing tomorrow.
