Time to Get Back to It

Here I am at work, pondering how to sum up my current mood in one tiny facebook blurb when suddenly it dawned on me that I have a blog site just waiting for some expounding of my current mood!

For many months now, I have been pondering how one survives living in a remote spot with only few friends, and almost no excess spending money. I have finally stumbled upon the answer. One makes big plans for little things. So I have made big plans. This weekend is payday and I am going to be getting the one paycheck that isn't immediately consumed for bills. So with my only mostly-consumed paycheck, a favorable weather forecast, and an extra-long weekend, I have planned a trip to Capitol Reef National Park. It's only an hour drive away and offers a plentitude of camping spots for inexpensive sleeping.

It's funny how this one act of decisive action has altered my mood entirely. In fact, I am so excited about this trip, that I keep catching myself doing a little "booya" dance at my desk. So far this unconscious joyousness has not been observed by a coworker, but its not like anyone would be shocked to behold such strange behavior from the likes of me!

So stay tuned! I am going to take some good notes and pics and report on my weekend trip. Then it will be time to plan my next advetnure...
