March Madness

I’m not talking about basketball… this has been a crazy 24 hours in Colorado. Spring storms can be unpredictable, but this last storm was unbelievable. We even got a snow day today to boot. It started raining at 3:00 pm and by 5:30 Denver was a winter wonderland. By 6:00 pm it was a total whiteout and I have never been so scared to be on the road. By the time I got home, I was shaking and in tears. Tonight, there is still a ton of snow around, but the roads are clear and dry. Go figure.

This is my Spring break from the university and even though I’ve been subbing, I haven’t had homework or reading to work on. I’ve been able to get some things done that I’ve been avoiding and I already feel lighter. By the end of the week I will be able to take a deep breath and finally feel settled. I’ve also been working with feeling my feelings for real and connecting with my body again. I have lived in my head for so long, it seems strange to check in with my body but it seems like the key to whats been missing for a long time. It’s a least a good place to start.

A good friend of mine just emailed that she has three agents interested in her manuscripts and I’m so happy. This amazing warrior woman has the greatest work ethic I have ever seen. She has worked so hard and I am overwhelmed with excitement for all the great things that are coming her way! Congrats Sam!
