I'm all over the place.

First Things First: is there anything else thinner than butter that I could have used in the title?

My mind is literally swimming. So I think this calls for a vacation or 2.

Or 3.

Or just random days off and away from the monotony. Past me here is telling Future me to make sure he took a few days off from everything. I’m so thankful for what I have and the people I have around me. But I just need some time away to gather myself with just a camera, laptop and imagination. So I’m planning a few MORE random trips (because I’m sure I wrote and said this before) and getting out of the rut that I’m in. 2022 was a year of “All-work-and-no-play-make-Patrick-a-dull-boy” kind of feel and I really believed that I was going to be tripping it up this year with more opportunities than ever before…

That didn’t happen. So I’ll take it upon myself to book it and se where it takes me, whether it be a in town trip or a plane ride away. I’ve been organizing things like I stated in a recent blog and Office Hours but I have so much on my mind that I can’t have the normal things around me.

So I hope you all are galivanting around the world and making the most or this life that you can morally see fit. This is a beautiful place God has blessed us with and even if you are a unbelieving person, you can still see the detail in this wonderful earth. Take care of yourselves and hope to see you on a trip of your own too.

Pat.
