Coffee House Musings

This morning I am amazingly kid free. Cooper is at the golf course, Jackson & Aiden went with their grandma and grandpa to their aunt's house to do decidely more summer activities than sitting at a ball park again tonight. They will be back in the morning--just in time to watch more baseball! I have been sitting and working all morning at Beaners--oh, I mean Biggby--and enjoying the rich atmosphere of the clients as they worked through their conversations this morning.

I listened to two old friends talking about their teenagers drivers-education classes and the process of moving their older daughters into their respective dorms. I overheard a young college grad getting advice from a sage professional regarding her portfolio and interview techniques for her first teaching gig. I have watched a gentleman work two computers at the same time and observed a young girl studying intently for nearly three hours now. It is a rich environment for a writer and I find myself aching to return to my fiction but still not quite able to start--so my blog is a compromise somewhere inbetween The "AHNA Standards of Holistic Nursing Practice" and Trixie the admitedly white-trash waitress who is floating around my head.
I am really enjoying my "day job" as it were of writing the study materials and random articles and it does bring in some cash which is nice - but I really would like to figure out what Trixie's problem is and solve it ...

Maybe tomorrow. Inbetween baseball games.
