The week before I went on the mission trip, I was in major vacation push mode. Like I mentioned earlier, I came home from Men's group on that Thursday night to a pool of water underneath my hot water heater. Not having the time or the desire to try to replace the thing myself, I had someone come out Friday morning and replace it.
Also, on Friday morning, I officially hired a L to represent me in a dissolution. It was time. I feel at peace about it. To me, it's just a next step. There are no forgone conclusions. There's a good part of me that's really excited about what the next chapter of my life's going to bring.
Saturday morning, I purposely made time for a breakfast ride with the local cycle club and logged 42 miles. I spent the rest of the day running errands, finishing up stuff for work, and packing. It was after 5am before I got to bed.
