Monday morning, Labor Day
8:27am Monday morning, Labor Day, Dana Point. The path was familiar. I had walked it with my mom everyday the four months she lived with me. I appreciated that time. Though I was frustrated with work I had mornings free to walk along the bluff. We head north, then east until we got to the park. Then we circled back to the apartment. The whole trip last half an hour. I would have coffee then get ready for work.
A year
6:12am the first part of a year is harder. There are no big holidays. Planned breaks. It is six months of slogging through relative weeks. The second half is the year is better. Summer is in full motion. It starts with a good holiday.there is Labor Day, the cool air of fall, the build up to Halloween. After Halloween it is a short time until thanksgiving. Then it is coasting until Christmas and New Years. Making it through the first half of the year feels like a victory.
