Groups

The hike was excellent yesterday -- I love this particular hike. My injured friend walked trails around the mountain, but the rest of us went up and over. I didn't expect them to hike the mountain -- pleasant surprise. Lunch at our usual place was delicious too. It was a full day -- cool, crisp, sunny, and a lot of fun.

As for the "drama" of today. My meeting changed to in-person. Showing got moved to this afternoon. Still a bit of a bottleneck of a day, but it's manageable now. Of course. I asked for what I needed. Sometimes that doesn't work, but more than not, a compromise happens. 

I did back-to-back harder hikes Monday and Tuesday and I feel really good. I'm thinking about changing up Thursday and Friday to hike a little more. Only concern is the temperature -- might be too cold for an early morning hike. It probably won't work out, but I'm mulling it over. Hiking harder is making a difference -- I'm getting closer to the bigger club hikes in my crosshairs. 

Last year I did a girls' weekend with a friend and her friends. I've continued to do a few things here and there with them. The weekend is back for this April. So yesterday, I had two text threads going -- this group and the Tuesday hiking group. Two groups of good women with lots of shared interests that align with me right now. I've been working on getting back to group dynamics and these ladies fit the bill. I let go of a lot of groups in 2019 because they weren't my cup of tea. Slowly finding my way to something new.

Last night, in bed early, no stress producing texts ... it was nice. Comfy bed, dogs, book, tea, vintage happy mug. 

I have another early start his morning. Full slate for the day. Hope you're having a good week. Later gators.
