Gradually I'm returning to earth. I spent the entire afternoon with Roo and Michael talking about potential solutions for our Mont Tremblant trip, and it took me to a much better place than I've been in a few days. We have decided that we are definitely going to the campground again, we just don't know yet what we will stay in when we get there. We are considering Terry and Karens generous offer of a tent and a Coleman stove, but where will I keep my bike??
The other thing that has helped in the last 2 days, and in a way that people can't possibly understand unless you have been on the receiving end, is the amazing outpouring of love and support we have received. From a personal perspective all the kind words have helped me move past my feelings of guilt, as crazy as that may seem. I pride myself on not being a needy emotional person, and yet I freely admit that I "needed" to hear, that I didn't deserve this.
As an update, they have the garage pretty well cleaned up and closed in, and they received the go ahead today to start on the major mess. That was subject to the investigators report today, and apparently he told them that a) I didn't light the match, and b) they can't find any evidence to try to blame the manufacturer. They will start on thursday with the RV and the shed.
I also managed to get a little workout in today, but since it's easy week, it was just that. I did my run/walk thing for 15 kms, but included a bunch of hills. I felt petty good considering my lack of sleep, and my overall emotional state.
Stay tuned! Game on!
run/walk 15 kms, 6:25/km
....and this one may take a few of you by surprise but it seems to make sense to me...

ReplyDeleteThe quote doesn't surprise me at all!! I'm so glad things are settling down and working out. I suppose it would be too expensive to rent some sort of RV for the trip...
