workdays in a new season

For two days, the sun has shone brightly, and warmly, and I have felt restless and trapped behind my desk. Yesterday, I rode a horse and called it work. I'm struggling with having the self-control not to do the same today.

This afternoon, my sister and I took some photos of donations I've received for our silent auction. She climbed a mountain of snow while wearing a donated backpack, rode a bicycle around the office and dismantled a tool kit. I can feel new crowsfeet forming from this concentrated half hour of laughter.

I wish all my days could be like this.
