Busy Days Before the Calm Days

We’re planning a trip out of town this weekend. And while that will be a nice, relaxing time (we’re taking time off Friday and leaving the city on Thursday afternoon), the days so far this week leading up to our deapture have been… full.

I’ve done a better job of keeping the blog updated fairly close to the current day. But right around now is where I’ve lapsed, and the empty days (without posts) tend to pile up faster than I realize.

Overall, there’s not any one thing that seems to be adding pressure or restricting our time. It just feels… busy. And when I stop to assess things, it’s a bit disturbing to me how that general sensation seems to be, more and more, a default sensation.
