The dust settles


PERPEND

So I've settled back into my life, mostly revolving around work, a little too easily.  The reentry has been fine, with no drama.  So now the big adventure is just a collection of blog posts and photos.  It's bitter sweet. Super glad to have gone, and missing it already.  Proud, that i got it done; but it's hard to express to someone who doesn't do this type of thing what a Herculean event it really was.  Deciding that another adventure, and starting the planning it, will be the best antidote for the glums that have settled in.

Had hoped I could come back changed, improved somehow.  But i think what's happened instead is that I'm the same, and I've just decided to accept myself. Not quite the same thing as improving, but perhaps the more realistic expectation.
