Awake early this morning and moved into the living room on the new futon—I’ve got it flat for a more “day bed” kind of feel. (Ordered some more matching pillows for it. And this way it doesn’t block the view.) So I’m in my favorite horizontal position but I can’t decide whether to face the setting moon or the rising sun. Quite a dilemma.

I just wanted to let everyone know that I am alive and well. Just not finding the where-withall to blog. I have not given  up on it, but only time will tell if I find a space in the week for it. Between full time work (newish for me), and the daily exercise, and keeping house, the day is pretty full.  As you all know, since you have all been working. I am trying to do a little thinking about Illumine and doing some editing in tiny corners of time. I am thinking that the work on Illumine is most important—and I’m playing with a few ideas about using SF in the next story.

(I flipped around to watch the moon set; it is down amongst the buildings, and golden.)

Work is proceding apace. By Monday we will have doubled our numbers, a little more actually. We’ll get to nine next week. Our first engineer arrived this week and I’m so glad to start to have someone to hand some of the design work to. Things should really start popping now.

It’s about time to head out—I’m going to walk today. We walked last week on a really windy day and discovered that our walking muscles had gotten a little lax, so the plan is to walk at least one day. And I play with a little jogging in my new running shoes. (I’ve got to keep going as cutting back from 10 hours a week to 6 hours a week has reversed the already very slow weight loss process. I guess I’ve found the line of demarcation.)

Moon is set. Out to see the sunrise.
