I'm lovin' it!

So for my first week of semi-retirement I have gotten up at the regular time BUT did not dress in my usual biz attire.  Instead I slipped on my jeans and a tee shirt.  I put in 5 hours grant writing and am done by 1 p.m.! Then for an hour I head out to my studio.  I'm revamping it, getting rid of all the dry blocks of clay and duplicates of my glaze chemicals.  I need room!  It's a great break from the computer work.  Then a visit with the beanies or work on one of my books.  I can go to the store when it's empty, make phone calls without having them overheard, and concentrate without someone constantly needing something from me.  So I'm loving it.
