Decided my walk with me for the later part of September is going to be a bit different. All but one of these pictures was from yesterday
FYI, a friend’s coming over today so I decided to make the cheesecake next Saturday instead. It will be 20 degrees cooler then anyway so it’s just a better day.
On to the walk. These are the places I see on my walk at work. Since this is my last week at this location, which is rather sad after all these years, I thought I would show you the landscape I’ve seen over these many years as I go for daily walks to get in my steps. The first pictures is from this past Tuesday when it was cloudy and cool. It hasn’t been the rest of the week!
Anyway, that’s it. My last week seeing all this is coming up. Friday, September 27th we will leave this place, early, forever. It’s sad. But life marches on and with it changes we must face.

I can see why you’ll miss it. Very beautiful! I hope the move goes smoothly and you find a place to walk you can still enjoy a lot!

You will be among the first to know! It was pretty. And peaceful. When it wasn’t too cold I liked to sit out on the patio under the awning and just chill when I waited for rides. Back in the pond and fountain days we had baby ducks in the spring and they were so precious. But the landscape of our job changed I guess. We originally took up all 12 floors in the building but over time as jobs were sent overseas and to other places, our workforce there shrunk significantly. I think we are only taking up 3 or 4 floors in the new one. But you know one of the hardest things to face for humans, I think, is change. For me, definitely.

Friend. 😑
Yeah that’s gonna be sad to leave. I appreciate you sharing it with us. It’s nice, even if like you I would rather see the pond with ducks again.
It’s tough to move. Especially after you’ve been so well established. You’ll settle in to the new place and I hope it’s not too small! Good luck with the move!

They put out samples of what our new desks would look like in the new place and it’s not as bad as i originally envisioned. It’s still smaller than where I am, not gonna lie, but I was imagining worse. I do get a new chair which is a good thing, and I think a new monitor as well. They are giving us all 22 inchers. Anyway, since none of us have a chose, it is what it is. Two long time co-workers are also retiring, so that’s more change I have to look to at the end of the year. Life becomes so familiar until it isn’t. I’ve been through a lot of changes over the years, many co-workers and friends and have and gone, moved away, lives lost, it changes you as well as what’s around you. Oh boy. And now I am getting weepy. Sigh.
