It's 10 O'Clock Somewhere
I was just out there trying to get my life back to normal...AGAIN (it's a frequent occurrence)...but my heart wasn't in it. I saw a couple of kids get out of the car in front of mine, but the mom wasn’t budging. My interest piqued, until I saw the principal come around to the other side guiding a preschooler who was OBVIOUSLY ALSO NOT feeling it that day. I thought to myself, "I hear ya kid." This is why I am a counselor. I FEEL your FEELS. Seriously. I do. Jesse feels them, too. So, I asked for a sunny sabbatical, right? I got as far as the planning phase, and then… "The weakness of his soul was in relying upon itself instead of trusting in you." -St. Augustine, Confessions [R.S. Pine-Coffin, 1961; p 122] I got snowed into the comforts of my own home with several days of sunshine to follow. Who could have seen THAT coming?? I sat in a comfy chair in my dining room window for 3 days straight and soaked in every last bit...
