The pace of my life has finally picked up. It was time. Yesterday I got the full tour of the lodge I'll be working at, and found out they will have enough projects for it to be a full-time gig (yay!) So next Wednesday I'll be moving to Halibut Cove. What a lovely, lovely place, and such wonderfully warm and welcoming people to work for. What other summer job could I possibly want? I get to garden, cook, clean, among other things that I already enjoy doing without getting paid. In a magnificent setting. With awesome people, including my little brother. :)
Today I worked over there for about five hours, raking the hill, cleaning up the garden, and clearing branches. It was great. I can't get over how nice it is to be doing something where I actually use my two hands to do something other than type. And the rest of my body too. I'm going to be very sore tomorrow, I'm sure. All these little muscles are waking up and saying, "Oh, wait, what? You need us?!?!" And on top of that I played ultimate frisbee for a couple of hours, which included plenty of running. Thankfully it was a very nice, mellow bunch of folks who didn't mind my slow reflexes and lack of spatial awareness. ;) And I wasn't even as awful as I thought I would be, though I definitely missed the frisbee more than I caught it.
Okay, time to wrap this up and go to bed. Sounds like I may have another workday tomorrow!
