Early Rising...

I left early this morning to be at work early and let some workmen into our office... early.

Ok. Maybe that was seemingly an over exaggeration, well, it was. I had to be here 15 minutes early at 730. In my mind if you need to be there 15 minutes early you leave 15 minutes early. Too early. I got to work at 655, but sat in the car and did my make up till 725.

Normally I spend a little more than half of my drive in the dark. Today I got to see our beautiful skyline twinkling. The medical center, downtown and reliant park and even the galleria/greenspoint all lit up. It was gorgeous. I made it to the Pierce right as the sky was turning light blue in the east with a small line of yellow. It reflected off the buildings. So pretty.

Something I never would have seen if I didn't leave early.

There are so many opportunities to see beauty out there if you take a look around.

P.S.- A small confession: All the twinkling lights put me in a happy mood and I listened to more Christmas Carols. I know! This is bad. I am supposed to wait for Thanksgiving day after the parade when we decorate.
