I am now "Back To Work."
I am ambivalent about it.
Tuesday, I wrote a 12 page report about our work in Colombia. Every time I looked up, several hours had passed.
Now that hasn't happened in a long time. To be so engrossed that time literally flies.
.
That is the good part of working again. It is fun to be part of something exciting. And to feel useful once again.
I like that!
However, my idyllic life style has taken a big hit.
No more time for leisurely breakfasts with friends. Followed by a couple of hours at the spa and gym. Moseying on to lunch followed by a nap. Then some guitar practice. And a heavy evening of TV or movies.
No more.
I do feel the loss. I don't suppose there is any balance between the two readily available.
I am scheduled to back in Colombia in 10 days for 2 weeks. I have to admit that being away from home for more than a week is not my cup of tea.
The work is stimulating. We are at that place it creating a business that is intoxicating. Full of energy and hopefulness. Plus, I work with some pretty awesome people. That always helps.
I sure hope we make some money!
Back to work...
