Serenity on a Tuesday?

If I was at 25% soreness yesterday, I'm down to about 9% today.

There is a serene moment that occurs when I cross into the highway. The cars haven't started moving south yet and (this time of year) there's no one around. It's just me and the road. There is a comfort in this feeling and I am grateful for it. I cannot imagine this feeling can be replicated in the subway.

I'm listening to my Italian course again but am having trouble paying close attention. Old feelings started to swell up about co-workers but I reminded myself about my pre-New Year's resolution and was able to contain it. I also need to remember that at the WFC, the path is closed off.

I began reading Child 44 today, a book I've always been intrigued by since I saw an ad for it on the subway a few years ago. I picked it up from the library last night and its sequel. It's been a while since I've read a crime/thriller and the first in a long time that it's had an international tone so this will be an engaging read.

I've got some new jazz in my bag that I will download today. This is a pretty easy week and I am excited to spend time with family on Fri & Sat.

Thank you for reading.
