Random Thoughts

Greetings One and All,

Happy Spring!  After a long cold winter in the northeast I hope the warmer weather finds you all soon.  In the land of sunshine we've already been dealing with the joys of pollen for weeks.  Allergies have been coming on strong and everyone's vehicle has a lovely yellow tinge to it.

Things at work are moving along just fine.  I'm starting to get my feet under me in the new position and find my place among the other supervisors.  There are more changes on the horizon.  Another supervisor is transferring to our store and one of our current supervisors will likely be promoted to an assistant manager.  Since we do not currently have an assistant manager it will interesting to see how this all works out. 

Jak and I are enjoying the extra hour of daylight as it gives us a bigger window of time to get to the dog beach around my crazy schedule.  Currently Jak is laying across the threshold with his head hanging over the step.  He's really so good about me coming and going at all different hours.  One good thing about his love of food is that he will eat his two meals a day any time.  Even on the days when breakfast is at 4am or supper is at 11pm.  Last night I rolled over in bed and knocked a pillow onto the floor right on top of poor unsuspecting Jak who was sleeping peacefully next to my bed.  The poor thing jumped up from a sound sleep not knowing what hit him.  Needless to say I felt pretty bad.  I'm glad it wasn't anything heavier than pillow.  Poor pup.

If I can find the ambition this morning, I will go for a run before work.  I am still trying to work up to running a 10k, though my schedule makes it tough to have a set training routine.  I'm at least trying to run 2-3 miles a couple times a week sans Jak and then whatever running he is up for on the days I walk him.  At the very least I want to do the same 5k that I did last May.

Before I wrap this up, I want to send out some belated birthday wishes to my friend MaryAnn.  I apologize for being a few days late and just remember you get a whole week to celebrate.  So Happy Birthday Week MaryAnn!  I hope there's sun and fun in store for you!

Until next time...
Peace & Love,
Hope
