This morning, I got right down to work after getting Chloe up and fed. Work out of the way, I took care of my other, now greatly reduced projects. And, when I was done, it was still before noon. Noon!!

As Wednesday is the day that Camille and I try out a new Decatur restaurant, we had plans to go out to Taco Mac for lunch. But first, I thought we could take a little walk and work on my “scavenger hunt” homework a bit first. We headed off into a neighborhood that we haven’t explored much yet; Camille was excited to find a nice little neighborhood park tucked away. We found what we needed to find and headed towards Taco Mac.

As I walked along with my girl enjoying our afternoon stroll, I began to feel guilty for not “getting things done”. Then it hit me. Boom! It hit me so hard I had a moment of euphoria; I got goosebumps.

I’m LIVING! It is what I’m been working towards!! I was actually doing it. And there was no reason at all for me to feel guilty for having gotten to where I wanted to be. It was finally time to smell those roses, er, camellias.
