I lay in bed this morning, sleeping quite well. Bill came home around 3:00 AM and promptly went to sleep. I was asleep, just luxuriously thinking how good it was that it was Saturday. A lovely, lazy feeling when I figured it out.

Friday had arrived. Saturday was not here yet. I got it together, not in a bad morning mood, I was OK knowing that a good percentage of the office would not be in today, a skeleton crew at best.

The well-rested night could have come from the fact that Kamala Harris gave a great speech, accepting the Democratic nomination for the office of the presidency. Of course, Bill and I are in her corner. And we also love Tim Walz and his family.

The Path train was not crowded at all this morning and even though I’ve been taking a bit of a longer walk from the train to the office to avoid the crowds I knew that there would not be many people going into their jobs.

My longer walk takes me into a lobby for the World Trade Center Freedom Tower, by the entrance for the tour to the top of the tower. It’s usually just one other person taking this circuitous route and it adds about 5 minutes to my walk.

Nobody looking at their phone, facetime or watching the rest of that TV show or movie, or playing some game while blocking any progress when climbing the stairs or an escalator.

I’m not much of a morning person so lessening contact with people, for me, is a good thing. I did have plenty of work since my supervisor was out today. That was no surprise, he did announce it previously. And that was fine. I knew what I had to do, and it was enough to keep me busy and make the morning flow much easier.

I don’t get a lunch break until 2:45, about 6 hours after getting in. And I am ok with that too. An hour or so after that, then it’s time for me to go home.

Bill is off driving people to the Hamptons and won’t be back until the morning. This gig of his won’t last past Labor Day weekend and next weekend is Labor Day Weekend. I hope I have the same quality sleep that I had last night.

I do have to say, watching the Democratic convention has rearranged my sleep pattern, staying up a little bit past midnight which is past my bedtime. Bil and I do have plans for tomorrow.

Something we did last year is coming around the bend once again. I am hesitant to write about it now, I prefer to write it in the past tense, I will take photos but like I wrote previously, WordPress does not seem to allow the posting of photos or whatnot with the updated website. So it’s words.

I will post the photos on the social medias and if you are actually reading this and are a friend on the social medias, you know where to look.
