Today was meltdown day. Awake at 4 AM I think "bad idea", "too late in the season to leave", "we haven't even had a good shake-down sail". In the daylight it's "hey, let's get this journey on the road" (so to speak), "just need to go grocery shopping", "foster out the house plants", "move aboard".
But today it was a nor'easter, blowing like a bastard. David brought Grace to Brewer's Marine rather than landing on our more exposed yacht club dock. Good move! I went to the boat hoping to get excited, again, about our proposed journey. Rather, the boat was in chaos due to David's late night engine repair project. Totally necessary and understood but it was just too depressing - the wind, the rain, the delays, the chaos. A good cry on Capt Dave's shoulder. Then ready to "get these projects done"!! Two more days of nor'easter. Enough time to pack. Merde!
