First day off...

I thought I would get up and be productive, but potatoes and eggs, sudoku, and reading the paper were more intriguing. So this is what retired people do!?!? Actually, I know a lot who got up early to make it in to volunteer by 9am. My day was busy and slow and hot and lazy and productive all at once. I certainly wasn't bored, but the significant work I have left to do didn't inspire me. I leave Thursday morning for Portland to see my family. Already I have a lot on my agenda while I am in Portland, so typical! I look forward to see so many friends and family and not worry about trying to cram it into three days - I have almost three weeks! I am sure the time will fly. So maybe I should be packing another box...uh-oh...
