nothing doing

Gracie and I are hopefully wrapping up our stay at the Laurel Fork Lodge today. We've been waiting on our resupply box to arrive, because it has the all-important dog food in it. Yesterday was a zero day. The hostel here is nice, with a kitchen/computer/tv room in which to relax, and nice sunny, outdoor spots for Gracie to hang out and rest. Zero days are actually a bit of a challenge for me. Once I get all my chores done, I don't know what to do with all the free time. This is also a challenge when at home. Yesterday, I watched three movies (Mary Poppins, Ice Age, and Babe) read, and took a brief nap. Along with eating a tremendous amount of food. I woke up at 8am this morning, then went promptly back to bed and slept until almost 11am. Almost unheard of for me!

Delightfully, the mail just arrived. It's like Christmas each time I open a resupply box, because I've forgotten what went into each one, and the people mailing them have been adding extra treats. I am well-stocked with dark chocolate for the "Trail to Damascus!" Thanks TUMC! I'd better make a move toward leaving, or I'll get sucked back into the zero day vortex.

Peace!
Kel & Gracie
