Charging Out & About.

             As you saw from yesterday’s late check-in, we made it.  A delightful drive and arrival.  The coast is gorgeous!  (When ISN’T it?!)  Our room is lovely (holy crap I love hotels).  The company is/was terrific.  We made Skye and her friend meet us at the pool.

I took this shot later,
but still,
the pool room.

             We walked a bit on the pier and then had dinner.  Very nice, very very nice evening.  There had been a promise of fresh-baked cookies, but we missed those (desk info was slightly lacking, but the employees have all been perfectly fine).  For dessert we raided the vending machine instead.  Good enough.  (Vacation!)

Uh, yeah.

             That was taken last night, it’s before noon right now, as I pre-write this.  I’m having a wee bit of difficulty concentrating (also, Dan has the TV on to check baseball scores, extremely distracting).  Pretty soon we’ll be going back down to the pool, one last time, before we have to pack and move on to our next destination.  So let’s get to our daily draw.  (Because, seriously, stop looking at that horrible picture up there.)

Six of Wands

             Valor and Victory.  Riding in to save the day.  Joy in the arrival.  Over all happiness and peace with our current situation.

             Wands, the symbol of sparking inspiration; burning with life.  Energy from all of those brilliant ideas that, seemingly, spring from nowhere/everywhere.

             Basically this card tells us that we’ve been doing a very good job, we’ve done our work, and can now march right in for our prize.  If it’s a vacation, a tiny break, a grand tour, or simply a quiet moment of me-time that we’ve awarded ourselves, take it.  We’ve earned it.  We are victorious and need only reach out to receive our gift.

             We have overcome the recent adversities, so enjoy this celebratory time.  It won’t last.  But then, nothing truly does.  Sometimes, that helps us to appreciate these delightful moments all the more.

Today’s Key Words, which just now popped into my head:

Joy and Appreciation

             Now, I gotta go, have to grab that water weenie and get back in the pool.  There may or may not be a chance to check in again before we head home.
