Morning Musings

I woke early this morning, and didn’t sleep that well last night, though that is nothing unusual lately.

I got out of bed just long enough to grab my laptop and start my morning with a bit of writing, a piece that’s been bothering me all week, and will probably (after a quick edit and read through) end up on this blog.

My best friend gets home this afternoon after three months overseas. I can’t wait to see her. I’m leaving work at noon, heading downtown to the police station to get a police check done for my involvement with the youth group, and then heading home from there to pick up a car and drive to the airport to meet her. So excited!

And I made the mistake of wearing knee high, high-heeled boots to work this morning. I only thought the process half-way through. “I’ll wear boots so my feet don’t get wet in all the muck from the melting snow this morning.” I forgot this part, “Slightly frozen muck and muck three plus inches deep is a pain to navigate in sneakers, never mind spindly two inch heels.” Whoops. Made it safe and sound, though I nearly fell several times. I think we’ll retire the boots for a less slippery day when I get home at lunch!
