My contract is almost up and while I've enjoyed the regular income, I can't wait to return to my old routine. I actually awoke around 5:30 this morning. Yes, on Saturday! I had to give up on sleeping and got up around 6:30. I can't believe how easily I've been conditioned. One upside has been that I found out Molly isn't getting older, or depressed, or even that bothered by her arthritis - she's just not a fan of walking at night. We're walking in the mornings now (its early enough that there are no animal control patrols and little foot traffic) and she's running around like a madman, er, maddog (?) Since she's alone all day, which she's definitely not a fan of, the early walk puts her in better spirits and it improves my mood too to see her having such a good time (though I do miss the extra hour of sleep).
Salute to Smokey, he was a true Canadian.
