Quiet mornings, coffee, and making plans

Today was my last day of winter break. For the past two weeks I have not had to think about work or schedules or being anyplace that I didn't want to be. Two weeks of vacation that didn't require packing a suitcase or staying in hotels. Exactly what I needed. I have enjoyed my quiet mornings with a cup of coffee and my late nights with hot cups of tea.

My mind has been in overdrive, which is strange considering I took two weeks off from blogging and haven't been writing. Instead, I have been thinking and making plans. Thinking is so much more than just solving a problem or getting a good grade in school. I am talking about really thinking - deep thoughts about the world and your life and what great things you will do next.

Nothing is finalized yet, so I can't give you too many details. However, I can tell you that I will be doing something very special to help with rhino conservation and that I will be taking on a challenge of something that I have never done before. It is all very exciting and a little scary at the same time.

For now, I will continue to get lost in my own thoughts. I will enjoy the next two days - the weekend - before going back to work on Monday. I will keep taking life one day at a time and while my mornings may go back to being a little hectic, I will cherish my quiet mornings with coffee.
