Three meals down. Two to go. I have dinner pretty well done. Someone else is going to prepare and cook the fish. I have the potatoes ready to go in the oven and the veggies ready to be roasted. I need to make beer bread muffins later. I dipped strawberries in chocolate for dessert.
The women are having a wonderful time. I feel like I have made a few new friends. One of the women grew up in Olpe. She is five years younger than I so our paths probably didn’t pass when we were in school. We have had a couple of good conversations and I trust our paths will cross again.
I am tired this afternoon. I was up by 5:45 so I could have breakfast ready at 7:00 as requested. I don’t think the first person ate until after 7:30. Betting tomorrow it will be closer to 8:00 before they are up and going.
The people running the retreat don’t have anything planned after 5:00 tonight. We are having dinner at 6:00 and then we get to relax and visit this evening. Several women would like a healing but I’m not sure I have it in me to do so. Maybe I will catch a second wind soon.
Both facilitators lost a partner when they were in their 30’s. One to cancer and one to an accident. It has been interesting to listen to them talk about that time in their life. They certainly understand what Nicole is going through.
Digging deep to find some energy to finish this retreat up. Sure glad I don’t have guests coming anytime soon so I can take my time getting the house back together again.
Almost to the finish line! I can do this! Yes I can!
