Escapism

I'm leaving Hawaii in just over 24 hours, and the melancholy and grief has paralyzed me most of the day.  Spent hours on the other blog, and avoided some jobs I promised myself I'd have done before I left.  Just can't make myself think about the stuff that's waiting for me on the other side of that long plane ride.

I'm off to my sister and brother in law's home Bible study in a little while, in an effort to get my head together for my departure tomorrow.  Goodbyes are so hard for me, even temporary ones.  Leaving my only child is probably the hardest one in my life.
