Journey of Survival

Being diagnosed with a brain tumor and seeking out treatment seems as if this would be the natural storyline. This was only the beginning of that journey. Having a date circled on a calendar, knowing it could possibly be my last day of living, I thought my story was about the challenges brought about by a brain tumor diagnosis. The journey begins with surviving with this second act of Life. What would YOU do if given a second chance?

A misty morning in Maine and reading a bit of Marc A misty morning in Maine and reading a bit of Marcus Aurelius:

“When you arise in the morning think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love ...”

Spent my Saturday making the post-birthday journey up North to give @thebeehivecottage some overdue attention. Tried thanking each person individually for all the birthday wishes on the socials. I am blessed and fortunate for all the kind words! If I missed someone it isn’t for lack of effort!

Speaking of effort, pulling myself out of the emotional hole that comes along with my birthday….missing my mama something fierce. And moving forward, wondering and wandering as I do about life.

Today I will be back at the winery, pouring for others, working with a new to me chef and a new to me winery owner. I’m still processing all the changes and being patient to see what life brings next. 

And now to settle into Maine for a bit as this summer season starts winding down. 🐝😊🥂

The Cove is adults only and in a quiet area of the resort. This is also where the Rum Runner originated at The Tiki Bar. I am looking forward to morning coffee with this view. #floridakeys #visitflorida

Oga’s Cantina in @disneyparks Hollywood Studios is lively and fun, plus there’s A/C! Cocktails are creative and yummy. A great stop to take a break.

EPCOT is also a nice park layout for getting in those steps. Earlier in the day isn’t as crowded.

My favorite park for walking lately is Disney’s Animal Kindgom. Lots of shady walkways and while the afternoons are hot, they aren’t as busy or crowded. Nomad Lounge is the perfect spot to get away from the crowds and relax with an afternoon aperitif and the feeling of being transported to a jungle oasis. 

Where is your favorite place to get your steps in?
