Beautiful Morning

I will admit to be a night owl, and usually even when not working Grave shift, I can be found still awake in the wee hours. The hour I am leaving work in the last two weeks has been a reminder of how pretty the early mornings can be. There is usually no grogginess, not for me at that hour, my body will remind me around 1030am that it is closing in on bedtime. For years living with another night owl, I slept this part of the day away. When I worked at Geico it was definitely an Ungodly hour I had to get up at back then, and drive for 2 hours to reach work, but I did see some pretty sunrises.

It was a pleasant surprise today to not come out into the jungle heat and humidity. The air was cool, a hint of springtime to it, the sky the bluest of blues. What a wonderful reward for bearing with the 5 days of sweating at work in the unpredictable and usually not working well air conditioning, then stepping out into a sauna in the mornings. It inspired me enough to get my laundry done this morning instead of putting it off. Birdsong and open windows..ahh..Gilly is digging it too, fresh air.

My furry roomie is sleepy though, I think he has finally adapted to my schedule, lol..just in time for me to stay up, or try to. I have a lot of errands that need doing today, and crossing my fingers that I get the news from the DMV that my transfer of title is in. Then I will likely spend the rest of this beautiful day trying to not fall asleep at the local office of torture. I have called, and called, and double checked. There had better not be a reason I cannot get everything done, I am as prepared as I can be.

A trip back into work to visit the HR for things I have been putting off , my paycheck (hah!- sorry...at least I hope there is enough on it), and fitting for supervisor duds. Banking, food shopping, and DMV, not in the order. If they don't get back to me with good news, I will be forced to wait for the friendship taxi again, and I think she has other plans.

Right now, I am sitting here enjoying the gift of a cool breeze, and trying to stay awake. If I did not have to do all this I would seriously think of staying outside most of the day. What a great day to garden..sigh...Bummer..oh well. I will enjoy my open windows.
Hugs, and have a great day all.

It is a beautiful day! So, on mornings like this, are you going to take walks before heading to bed?
Keeping fingers crossed that all goes well at DMV, so the rest of it is made easier!
Hugs to you and Gilly!
