This is the week when demands on my time become extreme, when time flies way too fast, and when the to-do list presses on me like a vice grip.
I should be used to it, after all, this isn't my first dance. I'm embarking on my sixth summer away from home. But the last week, before I leave, is always insane.
Not only do I have to pack for a four month journey to a remote location, but I also have to prepare my home for a sub-leasing house guest (cleaning, de-cluttering, and more cleaning). Now, put on top of this, a full time school schedule. We're in the middle of spring quarter at South Seattle Community College, and my math class is kicking my butt. I barely keep up with the work load.
Adding to my hectic week is work.... I am scheduled at Qwest Field up until departure day. Ugh!
I'm leaving for Juneau next Sunday and will write more once I arrive. I'll share with everyone what it takes to prepare for the journey to Elfin Cove. My new boss is already in Juneau and will be heading out to Elfin Cove in a few days. The boats are in the water and ready to go.
There will be a ton of work to get ready for our guests. There is shopping and ordering up supplies, cleaning and organizing the kitchen, and getting the guest rooms ready. My next day off...sometime in September!

Until next time....Bon Voyage and Bon Appetit !
It sounds like heaven! Whales, dolphins, mountains, eagles, otters, good food and good wine, what else do we need?
ReplyDeleteI have some friends from Florida on a cruise this week through the inside passage, Fred and I have done that trip twice, it is so gorgeous up there! Glad you are enjoying it so much Robin, and thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
