It's strange having Good Friday off, but it's a tradition at SIB and I for one am thrilled that is the case! Another sign of how even though it's grown into a relatively large bank it retains the feel of a small corporation, and it reminds me again how lucky I am to have found this job.

We're doing Easter at my aunt's on Sunday so I volunteered to bring dessert. Today I food shopped for my ingredients, got my laundry done, mopped the floors, made lemon curd and meringues, and tomorrow I'll prepare the cake. I actually got in almost 10,000 steps just doing chores, cleaning, and baking. I meant to go to the gym, I really did, but this almost makes up for it.

The gym is really where I haven't been able to achieve much in terms of putting it into a routine for me. When I get up in the morning I need about 2 hours to just do coffee, breakfast, puzzles, and news; it seems baffling to me that somehow I used to get out of the door within an hour of waking up every. single. day. I'm loving the new, slow morning routine enough that making that effort to get dressed, into the car, and to the gym just isn't ever high on my list of things to do. Hell, I've made it to the ocean to walk the boardwalk more in the past two months then gone to the gym! I'll keep trying, but if I still am not going on a semi-regular basis by mid-summer it's probably time to rethink the membership.

In the meantime I need to Google how to properly mix lemon curd into cream cheese frosting so I'll be ready to go for that component tomorrow. Maybe tomorrow I'll get to the gym...
