March 23, 2005

Rain, rain, go away

No, we're the ones who are going. The first day of a mid-week vacation to my sister's house for Easter. We should be on the road by now, but here I sit with Spike, I'm still in my t-shirt and underwear. Children asleep. It's raining and raining--I hate driving in the rain and for some reason even though I have made the 400-mile drive alone plenty of times, this time ... well. This time. Firsts can be hard. So maybe that's why I'm still here to write this.

I couldn't figure out what to pack and what to leave, so I packed everything. As if I'm not coming back. I guess I could not come back, depending on how it goes up there ... and up there feels more like home than down here does, now. People who love me, want me there, want me with them.

Herself and Moo have begun to ask Why don't we move?; let's move; let's leave; let's go.

Let go.
