The Zombie Mode

We all have those days when we seem to be swallowed whole by the rat race. For me, it is no different...

There's the usual stuff: work and chores at home. Next to that, I have been setting up a new blog and I decided to return to school to finish my master's thesis. And then, there's the boat. There has been a water problem and now we have to replace some wood in the cockpit. Actually, a lot of wood.

So, the last two months have mostly been like: eat, sleep, work, repeat. It is  gonna be a while before we get her floating again. And that's kind of a bummer. Being on the water relaxes me, so I really could use a sailing trip right now!

But if I can't go to a peaceful place, I can always imagine one. Draw one.

That too, gives me peace of mind. It gets me out of the zombie mode and reminds me why I am doing all this. It reminds me of the places I want to go. The places I will go, once our boat is finished.

It helps me get my stuff together and carry on. Soon, we will be out on the water again!
