Sitting on the deck. Cold beer. Sunshine. I’m taking a break.
There was a time when I would have said this was a guilty indulgence.
I was sitting in our home office, feeling that slight burning sensation in my shoulders as the muscles in my shoulders started to tie themselves in knots. I have a special talent for tying myself in knots. It was a productive morning and I had been at the desk since 7am.
Summer is waning. Soon we’ll be clearing snow off of the deck rather than basking in the sunshine.
Is this an indulgence? Yes, but it is earned. And fleeting.
Union employees call it a coffee break.
I think you deserve a little R&R once in a while, my Monkey Monkey Monkey.

Ha! I think I’ve had a few non-unionized coffee breaks like that. (Though I usually felt guilty about them.) This is one of the perks of my new schedule. Of course, in the winter I’ll probably have to use those times to shovel.
Hmmm threaded comments do no seem to be working well well. I wonder if I have to activate something…
I just activated something, now let’s see if this actually threads…
Woohoo, it does. Y’all can ignore this.
I think a nice break on the porch is very much deserved. You’d had one hell of a summer monkey. Enjoy the quiet while you can.
