Reflection

I didn’t sleep worth a damn, and I don’t think that Mindy did either. I heard her up several times during the night. I rolled out of bed near 530am and headed downstairs to exercise. It was Monday which meant push-up day. They came easy, though my left shoulder was stiff either from the tree removal work or lifting that dang tractor.

I enjoyed coffee and internet until 625am.

I finished my stretch then dressed for a run. It was still fairly warm, about 50 degrees. As lovely as it was on Sunday, the forecast was calling for dropping temps over the next few days and even some snow flurries on Wednesday. Pretty much the type of weather one should expect in early March (confused).

I ran the full 4.1 miles and felt good throughout. Mindy was just leaving for school when I returned from my run. As expected, she gave me the cold shoulder. I walked the pug then made some eggs – plain omelet for the pug and I to share. Was off to the shower by 750am. I hurried so to leave myself enough time to pack a lunch before bus time.

Bella and I headed out at 810a where we met Kenny and Makayla. The bus arrived pretty much on time. Headed back to the house where I made final work preparations. I packed up our income tax info determined to sort out why my W2 was showing monies earned in New York in 2012.


I had a busy day ahead at the office. Not only were there looming deadlines, but also at least three conference calls I needed to join. Like most days, I managed to crank it all out. I even got away for lunch and visited Home Depot and Target. I bought some almonds and poop sacks at Target. I bought nothing at Home Depot, but looked at their selection of trickle chargers and jump starters. I’d really like to have both.

Finished almost everything I wanted to accomplish despite feeling under slept and dragging butt all day long. Headed for home around 510pm. At home, Mindy shared that she wasn’t making a family dinner. I pretty much expected that. The truth is, I wasn’t that hungry. I snacked on peanuts and later made a turkey and cheese sandwich, which was more than enough.

I watched a couple episodes of The Universe on the Science Channel before slipping quietly into bed just after 10pm.
