By happy and fortuitous circumstance, I suddenly find that not only

am
I financially able to do the cruising I want, but my personal life

has
fallen into place with my 17 yr old daughter seeming to be cured of
melanoma. So why am I suddenly not looking forward to it? We had a
great day of sailing on Sunday. The short hops will not involve too
much time away from family or work so what is it? Is it possible

that
the work toward achieving it is better than the actual doing it?
I've done a little cruising in the past so I know the stress at

night
of worrying "Is my anchor dragging" whereas home in bed that never
crosses your mind. I know the "God, am I bored" during
loooooooooooong days of very light wind followed by the "Omigod,

what
am I doing here" fear at night with wind that is probably less than

I
imagine it to be. Is it possible that the last 9 years of starting
and running a small business has stressed me so much I just want to
relax? Regardless of that Christopher Cross song "Sailing", we all
know sailing is NOT relaxing. People have asked me what I like

about
sailing and I always tell them that for me its about problem

solving,
not relaxing.
Does anybody else have such odd thoughts before a cruise?
