Gypsy in my blood

In the coming months we have a lot of travel ahead of us. There is Portugal and then Nantucket for me and Boston for T and then California and somewhere peppered in between might be a visit to meet a birthmother and then business travel. From this vantage point it is all in the future and we sit quietly in our house and crawl in our bed at night and know we will wake to our tea and dogs and cat in the morning – but before you know it, we will be in motion with planes, trains and automobiles and at some point we will be waking up in a bed that we don’t know and drinking coffee or tea where we find it and wondering when it is that this will stop and we will be home, in our routine, back in our skin.

And then it will be November and the pelicans will return to the bayou.
