Well friends,

Nature has taken its course and decided that I need to chill. The last few months have been really busy and hectic... changing jobs, packing and moving my classroom, endless shows, sewing costumes, building the memorial for High Sierra, working ambiance and then of course enjoying High Sierra to the fullest.... dancing more than walking and running off of minimal sleep.

The plan was to return Monday pack my backpack and head into the backcountry today... but instead yesterday while unloading my car I threw my back out for the first time EVER! Damn... its painful I have not been able to do much other than lie around and really focus my energy on trying to make it feel better. I cannot remember the last time I was laid out like this its been years but obviously I need something to slow me down and remind me to take care of myself.

Thank goodness for good friends... my friend Anna came over today and straightened my house and set me up real nice and tomorrow I go visit my friend Holly for some healing hands.

Please send healing vibes my way... I'm already feeling restless! Love you all, Jen
