Grounded for Another 6 Days

These days, 6 is the magic number for days spent in Regina between trips.


I made it home from Malawi safe and sound, after almost two full days of travel. (I didn't bring my bananas and casava root with me!)





My body was fairly cooperative with the task of getting over jet lag... but it really resisted the tasks of unpacking my suitcases, doing laundry, and repacking for my New Brunswick trip. While these tasks occupied a significant portion of my 6 days, I still managed to fit in a few other activities: plan for my upcoming CSSE presentation in Fredericton; attend a couple of farewell teas and lunches for friends Kathleen & Sal who are moving to Brandon; meet Hyder for lunch to debrief our Malawi workshop; launch into my 3 workouts-a-day routine to start the process of chipping away at the excessive flight flab (excessive is meant to describe number of flights not amount of flab, so far that is); share stories and pictures of Peru with my friend Tammy who is off to hike the Inca Trail to Machupicchu this week; enjoy a RoughRider season planning night at Bushwakkers with Karen & Joe; etc. etc.



And now, I'm in New Brunswick, staying at the Riverside Resort Hotel on the St. John River.
And the sun is out.
And I'm relaxing with a glass of shiraz.
And I'm thinking about the next 6 days...
no, scratch that... the next 6 minutes.
