"I haven't seen you in forever!" A neighbor hailed me this afternoon when we were both out with our dogs. "How's retirement?'
"Well," I answered, trying not to look at my watch. "I took on a consulting job as a teacher coach."
She laughed. "I knew it! You're not the type to sit around, are you?"
I shrugged. "And did I tell you I joined a bowling league?"
She shook her head and laughed again.
"It's good, though," I told her. "Those two things keep me busy, but usually not too busy."
What I didn't say was that I had just gotten home from two observations over in Maryland, and I needed to run to make a doctor's appointment before coming home to debrief with the teachers on Zoom.
Maybe I'll do that no-plans thing on Saturday.
Why take on just one challenge when you can tackle two? This month, I'm using the Action for Happiness Mindful March calendar as a daily prompt for living and writing.
