Learning and Growing

Run, run, run!!!!  Oh how they run!  I've never walked so fast in my life.  It's like I'm in the olympics for speed walking.  From the time I walk up to the train in the morning and then later in the afternoon.  My first week of work I pulled a muscle in my leg, was out of breath and felt like I was in training. There are beautiful mountains to look at, crisp weather that isn't too cold and wonderful sunshine.  But we just run!!!  How I miss those leisurely walks where you could stroll.  Perhaps a mall walker may bump you a little, but no one is running you over. I see no signs here for "silver sneakers."  It must be city life.  It just pumps you up. 

Last week I had to get to work really early to be able to participate in a meeting at 9 a.m. eastern time.  I had to leave the house at 6:15 a.m. It was a foggy day and traffic was crazy.  Dave drove that day and it was insane.  While he was lining up to get into the parking lot, he said get out and walk.  So I got out and walked, of course I was heading in the wrong direction.  Dave banged on the car window and pointed the other way.  A nice construction worker helped me reach my destination.  Oh the kindness of strangers. 

So many new things to learn.  The train, how to use that music thing everyone sticks in their ears (I can't remember what it's called), the water dispencer, and those revolving doors in front of the building (like in Elf).  So much technology.
