Awaiting the Sun's Arrival

I'm sitting here with a cup of coffee waiting for the sun to come up, and I figured what better time to blog that right now. Why would I be waiting for the sun to come up? Well, starting the day off with an outdoor jog is my idea of the perfect morning, for so many reasons, but mostly because of how you feel for the rest of the day, filled with energy.

Now, if I were still living in California, I would be out jogging whether the sun had come up yet or not, but here in Idaho I wait 'til I can see what's around me. And I'm not talking about crime, although I guess it could be considered that, you know, me getting mauled by a wild animal. And while I haven't really seen anything wild out here yet, aside from a couple of ferrell cats that live behind me, I've chosen to not live on the wild side with this one, pun intended.

On another note, I am thoroughly enjoying my new job as the General Manager of my own gym. I am coming to the end of my first week on the job, and while I feel so certain that I made the right choice accepting this position, I am even more greatful to have been given this opportunity.

More later...sun's coming up now!

I find that the more willing I am to be grateful for the small things in life, the bigger stuff just seems to show up from unexpected sources, and I am constantly looking forward to each day with all the surprises that keep coming my way! -Louise L. Hay
