| Old Chair Swallowed Up By DayLillies In My Backyard Garden |
It's hot, folks! Sure Is! We're in the Dog Days of Summer and it's not even August yet. It's 100 degrees today and I'm not hating it. There is no snow, ice and frigid temperatures. My A/C is working, flowers are blooming and we have a swimming pool down the street to jump into. It's July and all is well.
As I write this, I'm at The Shack in the new Student Union at the University of Missouri. I'm floating around campus this week while our office is being remodeled. Today, I'm working on budgets...which has proven to be difficult because I keep listening to the conversation at the table next to me.
Here is what I now know...
...the two girls are MU cheerleaders, they are here for the summer while they are trying to get residency, they aren't 21 yet so they are counting the days until they turn 21 (in two years), there is a strange girl living with one of them and while she is their age she looks like she is 40 (gasp) (heehee)...
I need to focus...but those girls definitely make me reminisce about those carefree days of my late teens and early twenties.
But...
Not interested in going back there, though! Thank.You.Very.Much.
I tell you what, getting out of my office this week has been great for my productivity. New workspaces...new people...new views...it's all good to get the creativity flowing. I must remember this when I'm feeling creatively blocked and not producing as much at work as I should in the next few months (because it will happen).
Slow Down Summer....Please....
Jackie
