Full Time - Day 44

This will be the final entry for the Full Time title because I have decided to put my remaining free months to a different use. Today I will make a formal decision to follow a meditation schedule of my own making. I will post the schedule once I create it. The important part is to make a commitment and then watch what unfolds. Once a commitment is made the mind and will become determined to see it through. The time frame for the intial schedule will be 3 months, anything longer and circumstances might arrive to break up my time.

A very rare morning, a somewhat clear blue sky with true clouds, I ran 4 miles and on the walk back I darted up 2 flights of stairs at the Columbus/Wacker intersection, something I have not done in many years. I am not optimistic about the return of a blue sky, it is like a dying man getting a short reprieve of a feel-good day, short lived and an anomaly.

Both Rubinstein games today were elegant and superb.
