The full-time job is completed. Some work, some play ahead. The fun jobs are beginning and I’ll have a few minutes to say hello to family and friends. I was beginning to wonder if the weekend was going to come. It was a busy work week and it did take a lot out of me.
Thursday mornings are special because it always signaled the busiest days are behind me. The time where I might be able to dictate a few minutes along the way. And that is a wonderful thing to have in your pocket.

Some recent experiences are teaching me to enjoy the ride of each day more. Being appreciative of all you have. Knowing there is always someone much worse off than yourself. And that each interaction can be cherished.
I’m not even discouraged it could rain the next 2-3 days. Just having some time is a real treat. I need to keep creating images and sharing my lack of wisdom. Mostly for my own sanity and for anyone who might enjoy it.

Given the soggy start, I thought I’d lead with a couple of soggy images from Centennial Lake. Actually a rainy and cloudy morning is just what I need now to grab a few hour’s sleep. I just wanted to say good morning and the best of luck to whatever challenges you face today.
