Have a quick 30 minutes before aerobics and had to share a bit about today. I am getting up at 6 30..which in itself is a struggle for me. But I do it, and head over to morning stretch at 7 with a crew member. He is an older guy..probably in the 50's range who has been nicknamed Grumpy. Not a smiler and you have to think he really doesn't want to be stretching with a whole bunch of middle aged men and women at 7 in the morning.
So, after a very unappitizing breakfast of eggs and mushrooms and cardboard english muffin (first time I haven't liked the food), we meet downstairs for our hike. Meanwhile, there is an woman in her early sixtires who arrived yesterday..she wanders down to the lobby at 9 07 AM. Everyone is told to meet at 8 45. The van that takes you to your hikes has left. She proceeds to have a meltdown..screaming at anyone who works for this outfit until the owner spent some time with her and calmed her down. If anyone needs to de-stress, it might be her.
We hiked with Connor and Beth today. Connor-young, energetic, college age, who hikes in the summer and does ski patrol in the winter. Sweet kid, lives in the moment, positive, and enjoyed talking to all these women who could be his mother (and maybe his grandmother). He even took a detour and showed u Calvin Coolidge's home he grew up in. Beth was equally as nice..also snow worker bee by trade and hiker in the summer.
And I think we had the best meal so far...fresh tomato soup with oranges (no salt but you didn't miss it), pasta with spinach, chicken, tossed with a sesame sauce and iced tea.
Off to do do laundry..going through clothes like crazy.
