My friend Jessica came to visit me at work for a little while. It was so fun talking to her and laughing over stuff that it made me sad she quit. We had such a great time at work – I miss that. Work has lost it’s luster except for four hours on Monday and Tuesday nights when I get to work with another fun person. Those eight hours a week of fun barely counteract the hours I spend with negative people or by myself.
I still have six hours left to go – I just hit the halfway point for this night. I know I will get through it alright but I wish it would hurry along a little. Course, once the guys start doing a zillion traffic stops I will be changing my tune.
I’ve been up the last several weeks but tonight has brought me down slightly. It isn’t being tired – it is mostly missing Jessica and worrying over things beyond my control. I miss my peeps down in Florida – miss having options like going to the beach, renting a skido, hiking Myakka, etc.
Come winter I will be kicking myself for not doing more this summer to enjoy Iowa but honestly, nothing sounds new or exciting here. I can go walk trails I’ve walked my entire life, swim in murky water, rent a boat but have no one to go with, not much else to do really.
This winter I am buying cross country skis so I can take up that sport. The walking trail by my house is wide and maintained a little bit which would make skiing it about perfect. Plus then the dogs could still get their longer walk in cuz I’ll take them with me – maybe they can even pull me along…thought that wouldn’t give me a lot of exercise.
One of my coworkers cross country skis so need to see about going out on the golf course with her on Thursday nights.
Anyway, nothing else to write about really.
