I finally decided to come to the library and update my blog. It is a beautiful day out there! The sun is shining, it is warm and there is very little wind. I am on call for work until Wednesday but forgot, briefly this morning. It is the perfect day for a walk in Ridgeway, but that is too far to go in case I get a call to visit someplace like Paonia. Oh well, there will be plenty of days like this coming up! I am getting used to being on call. I hated it when I started. I felt like a prisoner to my work phone. But this time I decided to take a different perspective. I have been staying pretty busy, going about town to run errands and such. I bring my phone with me, but I don't have the anxiety around it like I used to. I am also on the home stretch of it now because it will end Wednesday morning. So far, so good!
Work has been really busy. The end of the month seems to be that way. I find myself running around quite a bit to make my quota of visits for Medicare compliance each month. And I have this really nice co-worker who I share an office with...really nice and really talkative! He won't stop somedays, and he expects me to pay attention. So this week I have been avoiding the office and coming home early, letting the boys out, and finishing my charting at various restaurants in town. It has been a good way to get my work done and continue to explore the restaurant scene!
I am itching for my spring vacation to Arizona! I can't wait for a whole week away in sunny Scottsdale with the family. With all my failed attempts to come to Denver these past weekends, it will be good to spend some solid quality time with the fam. Though, I will try to get to Denver before the vacation. I find I need a change of scenery every once in a while. Montrose is a cute little place, but after doing the same things over and over again it is nice to do something different. So, if the weather won't cooperate for a Denver trip, I will probably look to doing something else, like Glenwood, or try a day trip to Ouray and go to those hot springs or something. I am really looking forward to better weather so I can plan on some time with friends and family coming to Montrose. There is so much good hiking, and I really want to visit the wineries that I drive by all the time-there are three in Olathe, a couple outside of Delta, and of course a bunch in The Grand Valley. Festival season is huge out here, too. In Montrose in the summer onThursday nights we have something called "Main in Motion" where Main Street is closed and there is a festival like atmosphere. So, if you come to visit you will have to plan on coming one Thursday afternoon so we can go to that!
All in all things are feeling pretty steady. Is this the place where I am going to settle for the rest of my life? Probably not. But so far the adventure has been interesting. I learn new things about myself every day, and face incredible challenges at work where I come out okay on the other end. The boys are my rock and they promised me they will live forever. So I have nothing but time to figure out future adventures of my own!
