Monday Malcontent
It’s another bad Monday and I will be a little malcontent today. I seem to have awoke just a little off kilter. My wife is in California on a business trip and I always get a little discombobulated when she is not around. I will go into some detail about it all and then it will be time to get up and get going on this Monday and this first day of a new week.
My wife left early Saturday and got to California. She was able to do some exploring, she’s in L.A., with a friend of hers. They spent the day taking in the sights. Yesterday she was able to walk around some and then go to a Dodgers game. Last night was the opening reception. She went to that and then a couple of parties. She’s there for a trade association meeting. She starts her day at 7:15 this morning. She’s going to have a good time but she will be busy. She will be tired when she gets home.
Another source of being a little off kilter, but excited at the same time, is that I have latched several assignments with a new magazine. I always get like this before I write an article. Once I get into it I seem to do fine. I am excited about it all. It’s a high school sports magazine and I am ready to do some good writing for the rag.
I had a good weekend. Without the wife here I just did some work outside. I got in my garden and planted some more seeds. I spaded up some areas. I just had fun working outside. It was hot, but it was still fun.
I am ready to get my day started. I know it will be a little tough to begin, but by the end of the day I will be fine. I hope we get more projects in at work. It was slow last week. I need to get much busier. I will write more later.
