Our vacation is over. As short as it was (1 day) it served a great purpose. It served as a line of demarcation.For me there is no vacation hangover. There is no residual malaise.
It's a new day, I am starting a new cycle and for all intents and purposes , I believe I can leave summer behind me and get busy with the work of finishing the year in a strong fashion. 
As I look at my calendar ,I realize that the High Holidays are exactly 1 month away.
Armed with this information, I hope that I can prepare better that I have and avoid that last minute revelation that the holiday is upon me.
The High Holiday season is fraught with all sorts of emotional stimulation . Again,being aware of the knowledge that this is in fact the beginning of a new season for me will hopefully serve to alleviate some of the emotional and mental mood swings I have encountered in the past.
The 1 day break in the action also allowed me to gain a better perspective of where I am at this point in my life and what is on my path on this current part of my Journey. 
I had the opportunity to glimpse at some things that are missing from my life. I also had the precious gift of seeing some of the marvelous parts of my life that I take for granted, friends, family,health and so much more.
It was good to get away.
It's good to be back. 
Yes the grass needs cutting. The pool must be attended to.
There are a plethora of emails to be handled and I must rev up my schedule very quickly . My daily calendar did not go on vacation and I must get back up to speed quickly.
My son Max pointed out to me that he heard somewhere that after a vacation you should schedule 1 day off before returning to work. 
That might have been a really good thing to know before hand. 
I did not plan that way. Life begins right where it left off a few short hours ago.
I am however, in a much better place than I was before this mini break in the action.
It feels pretty darn good!
