High Over Lake Merritt

Today is day 3 of temping and I am getting used to the routine. My task list is light, so I am trying to figure out how to be productive. I don't think it's fair to do much personal stuff during the day, but I am not sure what else there is to do.

The office is super close to Lake Merritt so I am excited about the possibilities of hanging around here after work some days. It's funny that one of the places that Tony and I looked at living was very close to here.

Anyway, today I took the bus and while it's 50 cents more than my BART trip, I don't have to get in my car and I get a little walk in. They don't seem to run on the posted schedule. That either could be due to the Bay Bridge closure or just not staying to the schedule. Hopefully this will not cause problems. Especially since the bus home runs every 30 minutes vs the bus in the morning that runs every 15.

It looks like I am closer to a PT appointment. I spoke with Sports Orthopedic Specialists today and I should be able to get in next Tuesday. My first day off from temping. I really cannot wait to get this ordeal over and done with so I can start taking classes.

I have been very lazy getting home each night, so tonight I plan to do a big clean-up in preparation for Tony's return and cook some dinner before popping on the couch to watch Top Chef. I have been getting to bed before midnight each night, but my sleep has been fitful and my dreams a little wacky. I believe I've dreamed about my HS reunion twice in the last few days. I can only remember lots and lots of quick colorful images.

The weathers getting cooler, so I think I will be making some soups and stews this weekend.

Nine minutes before the quick walk to the bus begins!

Gratitudes:
1. a paid job
2. good friends
3. the feeling of possibilities
4. easy transportation
5. lots of culture
