Working again

I've been working at the Human Resources dept at the school district this week.  It was interesting and I learned a lot, but I discovered why I love retirement.

*  Working eats up the whole day- when I get home, there are only a few hours left.
*  I think I've gained weight for lack of exercise, even though I was busy.
*  Paul is having fun without me.
*  I've had to look at a calendar for consideration of activities.
*  I have to live by a schedule.
* I'll never get this week back.
* I don't have the clothes for it- I've always been casual and now I'm especially casual.

Being a desk jockey is not for me although it was varied and social....there were people coming in all week long that I knew from my former life.

I started another blog- "What's for dinner".  It's my attempt to catalog my eating so that I eat at home more and try to eat healthier and local when I can.  It's more like a public food diary.  Not so interesting but maybe if you can't think of what to have for dinner......

I miss blogging.  Facebook's sound bites are edging it out.  I know I'll get back into it when I'm posting trail journal entries.....the hike starts May 20.....begin the countdown.  34
