Finally, a day of rest. Along with my real estate endeavors, I’m back part-time at my former company. The pay is amazing and it fills a void of brain usage that I crave. It’s currently a public company that has just been bought and will go private here in a few months, which is a good thing, but in the meantime it’s a lot of work for everyone. All hands on deck. I worked 10 hours Monday and Tuesday and nearly twelve yesterday so today I am home enjoying a day of rest.
I’m happy that it’s still nice out this morning. I will leave to go on a walk soon. I love walking outside. Tomorrow we are scheduled to get snow and have cold crappy weather. But that’s Colorado. Saturday it should be back in the 50’s.
I’ve been doing so much thinking and soul searching the last week or so. I’ve reached the level of content with my decision to have surgery. I’m not saying I don’t have fear or jitters. Of course I do, but in my heart I know this will be a good thing long-term. I am creating a bucket list of things to do in my new body. I’ve never done that before. I don’t know if I’ve mentioned it or not, but I booked a family cruise for next April. That will be a little less than a year post-surgery. It’s not something I think I would have ever done otherwise. Which sounds silly, but that’s a lot of people to meet and a lot of active things to do and I just can’t at this size, not do those things and enjoy them fully. We’re heading to Jamaica, Bahamas and Grand Cayman Island. I cannot wait. Maybe I’ll hit the passport office today. That would be a good use of my time.
Kenzie has her first official day of work today. I’m very excited for her to step into this new phase of her life. She’s such a sweet girl. She’s working at Van Heusen clothing store. Momma gets a 40% discount going forward there, at Calvin Klein and at Tommy Hilfiger. That should come in handy in the coming months for sure!
