My first day began Saturday and this challenge was definitely what I needed. The day got off to a bit of a rough start with the subway being closed from bloor to union station (my stop). I had to take a shuttle bus instead and what is normally a 10 minute subway ride turned into a 30 minute bus ride. I'm certainly grateful for the subway now. By the time I got close to my work it was 9:54 and I start at 10:00 so I figured if I'm gonna be late I may as well stop for a coffee. I was in fact late by 2 minutes which was a bit irritating because had I skipped the coffee I may have made it by 10:00. Oh well.

On the way back it was even worse. I had to take a 10 minute walk to the bus stop and then the bus took 45 minutes to get to bloor station. 45!!! That's how long it usually takes me to get home from work and here I was only half way. Needless to say I was not happy at all. I just wanted to go home and lay on the couch.
After a long day at work and and even longer commute all I wanted to do was relax so I did what everyone should do. Take a mid day nap. Naps are the best and truly make me happy. I wake up refreshed and no longer grouchy. I need to go back to when I was a baby and all my day consisted of was naps and food. Oh if only!
Yesterday, my happy moment consisted of chatting with my mom on facebook. I haven't seen my mom in years and it's really good to be able to talk to her at any time even if it's just about trivial daily happenings. Our chats can sometimes last 30 minutes sometimes they last 2 but even just being able to say hi brings a smile to my face.
