Yesterday was my first day back at Farmers National Bank and it was great to be back. It started with a large poster on my door with "welcome back Bill" and right away I had a couple of people stopping by to welcome me back. A few minutes later I walked by the conference Room and noticed boxes of Burke's Bakery doughnuts, coffee and orange juice. A welcome back reception had been organized and I was able to see everyone at our 3rd and Main location.
I cannot express how good that made me feel. I went home for lunch yesterday and when I walked in the first thing Marti said to me was "you look energized today". It is just one more step back to normal.
Yesterday afternoon I got out and visited with some friends in the downtown area. Greg probably does not need to know all of these details as yesterday was probably not my most productive day of all time.
The only downside to yesterday is we were hoping to hear from Duke and we did not. The Duke information is the last piece of the puzzle for the treatment plan. We should know today.
By the way I got in a 5 mile run this morning before sunrise, which was, and now is again, my usual time to run. It was perfect morning to run and is another step back to normal.
Thank you for caring.
You really are on the way back to normal-run finished by 6:09 a.m. Good for you! It's wonderful that you had such a special day back @ work, too.
ReplyDeleteOne question: Does it bother you that your youngest son and your brother seem to be on the same wavelength? Pretty scary.
Running before sunrise. I've aspired to do this for years. Happy to hear things are getting back to more of your usual routine :) Take care!
