What a weekend

Spent this past weekend in the Mpumalanga Highveld, near Dullstroom. We decided (with a bit of difficulty and a few pangs of guilt) to leave the monkey at home with her granny. And she had a great time while we recharged and had a bit of time to focus on emotional reconnecting :)

The lodge where we stayed is a truly beautiful place. Each log cabin has a massive fireplace (we used a MOUNTAIN of firewood - temperature was below freezing at night!) and also has its own two mountain bikes - we had an epic journey of about 20km through and around the plantations on the farm. Two nights of uninterrupted sleep was a welcome bonus after a difficult monkey-sleeping-week last week. And I managed to read a whole book!

Emotionally and physically recharged, full of courage to face another long week at work...
