Anna's odyssey should end today, when she reaches Northampton MA. She's been on the road for 2 full weeks, not checking in as often as I'd like, but doing the trip her way and at her pace. I think she's ready to be done, but I really hope she enjoyed the trip. Patrick is on an airplane as I write, coming home for a few weeks. It's been a very rough time since he was mugged, and I'm REALLY looking forward to feeding him and talking to him, and sharing his company while he's here. Not sure what to expect, but I stocked the refrigerator, made sure he'd have a cell phone to use, and put his mail on his bed.
By tonight, both kids will be safe at home - Anna with her friends at college, and Patrick with us. Not really his home anymore, but I hope it will do for a little while. Sleep has been hard for me to come by, and I hope that will be better starting tonight, too. The weather has changed to fall patterns already, but I don't care. I'm VERY ready to be done with this summer.
About Me
- Karin
- I'm married, and the mom of two 20-somethings who need me less every year. Patrick is off to Namibia with the Peace Corps, and Anna is a recent graduate of Smith College. I am addicted to working out, and I'm looking for a job that will allow me to make the money we need while still doing the things that I love to do - running, playing violin, traveling.
