Navigating Fog

It was a l-o-n-g day today with lots of emotional stuff happening on the home front.

Capping off the evening was a fifty mile drive in pea-soup fog, the kind of swirling gray mist that car headlights can penetrate only as far as three white hash marks dividing the two sides of the road.

A poor, lost dog materialized in the middle of the road and we gave the brakes on Motivated Mom's car a good workout. I would have liked to have pulled over to try and save the dog from almost certain injury but would undoubtedly have ended up stuck to the grill of a tractor trailer.

Such weather calls for a hot cup of herbal tea along with a good book.

More creative stuff to come when I can clear the fog in my head.
