Getting back on track

Photo by Barbara J. Kershner
I am still filled with joy from visiting my family in North Carolina --my sons Brandon and Ben, plus Ben's wife Wolf, and their son Nathaniel. Above is a photo of me with Nathaniel and Ben on Christmas Day.

I got back to my routine this morning. At least I got up at 6 and meditated. That was wonderful. I need to do that every day. I didn't run immediately because it was dark, cold and rainy, but I did run at 3 in the afternoon, when the sun came out. I just did two miles -- up to the park and back -- but that was enough for a start. It is so good to be running again.
I also spent some time clearing off my desk. That helps me feel better too. Life is good.
