I have become an early riser, thanks to Simone, my cat. I am up around seven am. By 7:30, the beeping begins. I live in apartments that are right next to construction, and have been for 9 months. Outside of my apartment is “home base” for the whole neighborhood. Supplies, a cement mixer and loud Spanish speakers permanently reside in the driveway in front outside of my living room window. I have a corner unit so my living room, kitchen and art room are all facing construction. Today, I get to go wakeboarding, I’m trying to start saying that instead of waterskiing. Really that’s a better way to describe what I do every Tuesday morning at the Boulder Reservoir. I love summer.
