Cirque Du Soleil

Work has become a living blinding hell.

I have over 2,000 emails.

I don't even know how many voice mails.

Every day is a daily struggle to get through the politics and me? I'm not clever enough to do them. I'm just not. I don't even wish I was-it simply isn't me, never has been, and never will be. I don't want to lead the world, I just want to feel that being part of the troops is ok.

And then sometimes, you just need to sun yourself.


The sun feels great


So we're off to Santorini and Crete for 7 days. Away-to recycle. Renew. Re-use. To forget about the hellhole that is work, and then to come back and try to cut down work emails, personal emails, and make a dent in this thing called life.

I'll see you in a week. Until then, if I can remind you about The Gorby Corner? All proceeds go directly to the RSPCA.

Our little rescue man, currently residing happily with Angus' brother until we return next Tuesday, thanks you.

3 Look how happy Gorby is. I was looking through your Flickr photos at him before you adopted him. You could see fear in his eyes. He was withdrawn and sullen, but he wanted love so much. His eyes and face are alive now...you can see that joy replaced the fear. His ears are listening for loving owners...he is safe. It's amazing the story that pictures can tell. Hold up the before and after adoption photos. You gave him more than a life...you gave him a soul.

5 You really are my older sister love! Enjoy Santorini and Crete. Make sure to rent a car in Crete and go around. Agia Galina is GORGEOUS and the Samarian Gorge is well worth the hike. Bises!

8 Dana, such a beautiful sentiment and absolutely true. I thought the same thing when I saw the picture of him running through the flowers.

11 So is this your first time away from Gorby? Have a fantastic renewal period!

12 Right now you will be sunning your white legs and hopefully relaxing in the rays of the beautiful sun. I can't wait to see your photos and read your memories, you write about your travels so wonderfully as if I was there too. The best travel writer! Enjoy yourselves...
