Going Home Never Felt So Sweet

Sitting in the airport waiting for my flight to SEATAC feels different this time. I have been home pretty much every summer for a few weeks since I first left Olympia, WA and have always enjoyed the trip, but this time I need it!

Things have been completely out of control since April. From changing the foods I eat, to how and when I sleep, to the pain faced over simple things (like walking), it has all been manageable individually but completely overwhelming as a whole.

Home though, home is calling me. What’s weird though is that nothing about home is different. I will sleep in the same room I always have and probably visit all the same local spots I always do. Nothing at home is different, I’m different this time.

I will not let this trip pass without looking up friends I haven’t seen in almost 20 years*, without trying Olympia Oysters, without taking my son fishing.  I will not hold anything back for the next trip, because the fact is there are no guarantees there will be a next trip.

What have you been waiting to do? Do IT!

* P.S. We are having a birthday party for Keegan on 8/18 at 2pm in Olympia, WA. If your in the area please come by and lets reconnect.
