As
the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for, you just might get
it. It is sooooo true. My wish for vacation: quiet, peaceful,
solitude. Well folks I got it. And then some! The word BORED comes
to mind. So much so that it is almost a certainty that I will cut
this trip shorter than planned and go home early. There is something
to be said for being in your own bed, your own home. Especially when
you aren't doing anything anyway. I might make a detour and visit
friends on the way home however. Regardless, I feel sure that I will
be home by Thursday...Friday at the latest. It might work out for
the best as I have one piece of business that I should attend to and
it can only be done during the week, during typical business hours. It
can wait, but if I'm not doing anything anyway, why not now?
I
did get a workout in today however. I jogged to the recreation
center with the intent of just seeing what equipment they had. However when I got there, I felt it incumbent on me to at least try a
couple of the machines out. An hour and a half later, after time
spent on the treadmill, bike and elliptical, I started the walk back
to my unit. It was at that point that I realized just how tired I
was and how I really didn't want to have to walk that far (it's about
a mile). It was about then that I spotted a lone golfer on the golf
course with his two sweater golf cart. I was just tired enough to
ask a stranger for a ride. He was a nice enough stranger that he
said yes and was very kind to deliver me just outside my building.
After that, I took a long shower and after dinner, settled in for a
couple of movies on Netflix along with a very nice bottle of wine.
So
here I lay waiting for sleep to take me. I must say that the bed is
very comfortable here. With lots of pillows! I'm sure I can do this
until at least Wednesday.
P.S.
Tomorrow morning it will be interesting to see what my right leg
looks like. I've managed to bump into or trip over three pieces of
furniture today. I am such a klutz.
