Present Moment

It was tempting to manage my stress by throwing everything in the car at 8 PM and driving until midnight to get a head start on our trip home, but I'm glad I thought better of it. Such an attitude might be the very definition of living for tomorrow-- neglecting what is left of this glorious weather and our last few hours here in rockin' Rochester, a place where I have been very comfortable, and happier than our situation might ever suggest.

And so we decided that once our packing was done we would have a seat and enjoy tonight-- sip a beer, watch some Netflix, and savor the quesadillas concocted from the leftovers in the fridge. The journey is unavoidable, but the road can wait a few hours.
