Between Rhythms (Back from Squam Art Workshops)
morning view from Brae Cove porch, Squam Art Workshops 2011
I'm back from Squam Art Workshops and taking my time returning to my normal day’s rhythm - a rhythm that doesn’t include loons on the lake, sitting under the moon on the dock or busting a gut laughing by the fire with eleven other women.
The normal day’s rhythm includes sleeping in my own bed, movies on the couch with D. and re-sinking into the warmth of home.
They’re different rhythms and it’s important to allow in-between time. It makes for a gentler transition.

thank you for your writing this -- allowing the in-between time, yes...
it took me some time this year to re-enter into life. i think mainly because i wanted to hold onto my experience of squam a bit long. i have missed seeing your smiling face in the morning. so grateful to have meet you this year. xo
@ Michelle - Transition time is important. I'm still surprised at how tired I'm feeling today. Gently...
@ G - I miss you. A lot. Really a lot.
Re-entering can be difficult. Be gentle with yourself.
Aaaah Jennifer, spoken like someone who's been there. ; )
