I did manage to get in a decent walk today, I figure it was well over five miles, maybe even six, but since it wasn’t one of my usual routes, I wasn’t too sure about the distance. The sun was brilliant, and the temperature was such that I was sweating by the end of the work out. Of course, I did detect a bad omen. Starting out, I saw about three little bluebonnets poking up through the soil along an embankment. By the time I had doubled back past that same spot, there were six or seven bluebonnets pushing upwards. It means that it’s spring time. And if it’s spring already, why is this happening before the middle of February? Hot summer?
I had one of those busy Monday’s, one where the cell phone doesn’t stop ringing until I turn it off, the pager doesn’t shut up, and one little disaster after another. My timing on the color change was almost right. But not quite. Fredlet was leaving town so I got a quick breakfast with her, then it was a quick reading at Threadgill’s, then a quick dinner there. I finally got a moment to relax because we went and saw a movie.
