So here I am at the Mason’s Lodge Leadership Program here at Rocky Gap Resort in Cumberland. The kids are with Mom, Dad, and my sister Crystal for the weekend. It has been a very long time since I have had so much “free” time on my hands. Seeing how I have no interest in the workshops in the “ladies program” I hope to start a good book, finish Kyle’s blanket that I have been working on for three years, walk the nature trail around the lake and check out the aviary that is near by. Carlo will be in workshops all day and I will hopefully get some free time with him tonight. We are different people without the stresses of the house, animals, kids, and my parents. How can we keep this feeling upon returning home? What do we need to change to make this happen? I guess this is something to think about as I walk the trails this afternoon . Perhaps there will be an animal that will cross my path with some much needed answers ; - ) Will Let you know! Tata for now.
