Today is T-day
It was hotter than hell by the time I got on my bike a little after 8 this morning, but it still felt good enough to try for 40 miles. I only put in about 30 because everyone had a headstart on me and I wound up meeting up with them all at Russell’s for breakfast and seabreezes.
I woke this morning with a few things lighter in my mind than I went to bed with – I had gone to bed a little vexed at some who are spoilers of a good time, and a little anxious because T was making yet one more European flight home, not to mention the other host of neurosis that I am sure I harbor from time to time. But I put my worry dolls under my pillow after taking them all out and talking to them last night – and it worked, they took the worries away and as I set out on my bike ride, the first song that came on the mix was I Can See Clearly Now, and I knew today was going to be alright.
And it’s actually better than alright – my baby is on her way home to me and it’s about T minus 2 hours, my sabbatical is only a couple of weeks away, my loved ones are healthy and happy, and all in all – I’m grateful for my bounty.
