sick day

decided to take a sick day today. woke up feeling pretty nauseous and then just wasn’t feeling attitudably appropriate to have 7 individual therapy sessions. so i called in. it was a good decision. i really honestly didn’t want to do shit. i was going to just sleep all day. but my dog wasn’t going to let me!

we decided to head out to cerro summit cerro summit has been one of our winter snowshoe staples so I was really unsure as to what the conditions were. 

they were muddy! really muddy. we went along the open meadow trail and glade (my dog) was not really having it so we turned around. instead, we just ran along the road! it was super beautiful. great views. nice and dry despite two or three patches of snow (which glade absolutely loved). we didn’t really go too far on the road, probably about a mile and a half, and then we went back. it’s definitely somewhere i’d like to return and go farther. i may just want to check the legality of it though. there were no no trespassing signs except for the land on the left and right...i don’t know though, always good to be sure.

“How do we forgive our Fathers?

Maybe in a dream

Do we forgive our Fathers for leaving us too often or forever

when we were little?

Maybe for scaring us with unexpected rage

or making us nervous

because there never seemed to be any rage there at all.

Do we forgive our Fathers for marrying or not marrying our Mothers?

For Divorcing or not divorcing our Mothers?

And shall we forgive them for their excesses of warmth or coldness?

Shall we forgive them for pushing or leaning

for shutting doors

for speaking through walls

or never speaking

or never being silent?

Do we forgive our Fathers in our age or in theirs

or their deaths

saying it to them or not saying it?

If we forgive our Fathers

What is left?”
