Waking up

Waking up to a new day. Looking out my window, there are calms waters and clear skies. No chaos.

When I rebooted my personal PC yesterday, my favorites were staring at me. A link to my former work email and remote to my desktop was on my bookmarks bar as well as pop up for messenger service for connecting with my coworkers came up immediately. It exposed me as available. So first task to rid my new adventure of post work clutter was to stop the email and messenger messages from appearing. The only remaining reminder is my retirement login. I am keeping that.

I reread my blog from yesterday. For those who out there who don't know me. I just want to reassure everyone the ideal of not working isn't something I was planning so early. The circumstances just fell into place. I am not sure how long I will go without bringing home a paycheck but for now I am in a good place to take some time off. It would silly not to do it.

Got a text yesterday from a co-worker. I won't disclose who but the question was work related. I steered away as best I could. It wasn't like the answer would compromise anyone. But it was a moment of recognizing things are different.

Many of my co-workers are friends and my daughter works with the same company. Future conversations will be interesting.

Yesterday, Chris and I accomplished some home tasks, played in the pool with the doggies, and read books together sitting out on the deck. Today, rinse and repeat.
