A Day Off

Two terrific things happened today.  I finally moved back into Monarchs House and unpacked for awhile and secondly, I got a day off from my workouts.  Yay!  I'm sitting in the living room in Monarchs House looking out the window to a Montana like sky with very flat light over the distant hills.  It is just another glorious day here. 

I feel like I am accomplishing my goals step by step.  The workouts are just part of it.  I've worked, read, thought, planned, relaxed and socialized all in moderation.  Most important of all, the biggest goal has been accomplished, to quit smoking.  The one thing that I have not been able to do is to get a full night's sleep.  I always wake up around 4 am and read until 6 am or so.  I can't crack that old habit even though my body certainly is weary enough.  I guess, everything in due time. 

Speaking of time, it's time for me to go enjoy the day.  I miss you all.

I remain,

Full of vim and vigor,

Mike

Michael, Just a note before I start my day. Listening to Steely Dan's collection of great songs..."Reeling in the Years", "Nightfly", "Time out of Mind"....Hoping you have a nice day, while I rake the leaves in my yard, with the outside Bose blaring. I'm looking forward to your next journal installment. Back to the leaves...and "Dirty Work"...MG
