The Art of the Day is : Changing into high gear
Ahh. My husband used to tell me that I was a "soft A" personality. Not a true type "A", who had to get things done, and driven to be the best, but a person with drive, who knows how to switch gears. I want to get things done, and I want to get things right, but I want to take time, and be scheduled, but not tightly scheduled.
Sometimes though, I find myself scooting around to get everything done, and surprise myself at how efficient I can be. This morning was one of those times.
I'm going to visit my brother for the holidays, and I'm bringing a bunch of stuff, and I needed to pack, and take out the trash, and arrange for the cat (OK, I took care of that Sunday), and get to a 9:30 appointment and then get to work. Well the car is packed, I remembered all but two items on my to bring list (the air mattress and an ipod wallet for Em), I got to the appointment, and to work, and fielded two calls, and am getting to writing this post, and OK, I'll have to seriously repack the car when I get to Vermont, but other than that I'm moving right along.

Some days "It takes all the running you can do to stay in the same place". This blog is to chronicle the running, and point out the interesting things, people, places, I meet on the way.
About Me
- Name: the other Joan
- Location: New Hampshire, United States
I've lived in all 4 New states, NY, NJ, NM, NH. I grew up as far away as you can from Manhattan and still take the subway.(I used to put subway tokens in my penny loafers so I could click my heels three times and go home). I've sung solo in the Parma Opera House. My brother and sister are twins. I believe that people want to be used, but they want to be used well.
