As I sit at my desk, with the sun streaming through my window and a cool breeze playing with the papers scattered around me, I have an overwhelming urge to go for a walk, cut my lawn, weed my gardens, anything to be outside... As soon as I have completed these preliminary drawings for a client I think I will grab my cell and get out in the sunshine! Filing, accounting, general office paperwork be damned - these gorgeous days are too few for us Winnipeggers and should be enjoyed to the full extent!
Drawings are finished and I am getting on my shoes. How fortunate I am to have a career that allows me to just take off in the middle of the day to baske in the sun! I am reminded of all the people I know (my husband included) that have only the view from their office window, or worse yet, a radio program to let them know what the weather is like! And even though there are some week-ends and evenings that have to be sacrificed for my work, moments like this make it all worthwhile!
I think it is absolutely necessary for us to take some time to appreciate the beauty of summer - it helps us get through the long, cold winters! So, here's to the afternoon golf games, drinks on the patio, walks in the park and the feeling of warm sun on our skin! Let these moments re-charge us, inspire us and help us keep smiling!
