I’m at Lake Toxaway this week. I’ve lived an hour and a half from tranquility my whole life and had no idea. This getaway came at the perfect time. I really needed to clear my head a bit. Believe it or not, I’m working here. Some during the afternoon, but mostly at night. This week, I planned to write a little something about Father’s Day. You would laugh if you saw how many times I’ve started writing and deleted all my words. It’s comical at this point. This happens every time I try too hard to write something “good” for you.

I’m having such a hard time thinking. I’m just going to vomit words.
