It's Monday...

...and I'm not at work.  At least not at the work I've been doing.  I think that having long spans of time to myself is a different type of work, more of an internal dialog about what my purpose is today.  What shall I do to fill this time?  At this point in my life time is a luxury.  Maybe time is always a luxury for us first world westerners. 

I am so grateful to have the support of my friends back in CT.  To be happy for me even though it's hard to think of so many miles between us is such a gift.  I intend to keep my connections strong and to make sure that the people I love know that I keep them close in my heart. 

So today, I'm going to trek around the Boulder reservoir, a man-made water/recreation spot with a 5-mile trail circumnavigating it.  Then I think I'll check out the Boulder library.  November is NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) and they have a weekly group that is meeting to engage in this event.  Tomorrow is the meeting, so I might actually go and hear about people who have decided to write a novel during November!  I know that one of Odyssey's teachers is doing this with one of her classes, so it would be fun to check out.  I know absolutely nothing about novel writing, but I know that I like writing and I like novels and I like libraries, so it seems like a win. 

Bikram class at 4:30.  It's near the municipal airport where Mark's work is.  So maybe next week I can go to the class then pick him up at work afterwards.  Forward thinking...
