Bryce was undecided about whether or not to return to work following his recovery. Bryce worked in Auburn at CFCU, and had left work on sick leave for his operation. But time to think about life choices as he was recovering from the operation. Bryce found so much that filled in his day while he was at home. Exercising, meditating, reading, and household chores - shopping, cooking and the like. Bryce is a great cook. Far more interested in recipes, presentation, and healthy meals than I am. Don't get me wrong, I'm interested - but I'm not "passionate" like Bryce is. Meals is a ritual you do at certain times of the day. When you're in the right frame of mind, of course it's stimulating, and rewarding. But sometimes it is just a chore! So, we both decided that for Bryce's next journey - he'd resign from work and stay at home. Making that decision was liberating for both of us. We knew where we stood. Bryce had his hobbies: mainly to do with gardening : growing organic vegetables and herbs, but also reading and creating delicious meals. In many ways - it was I who was the lucky one. I had myself a resident gourmet chef. I'd come home from work and I'd smell this gorgeous aroma coming through the house to greet me. We do eat well. And lunches are always tasty too. Usually I do the breakfast prep and give Bryce Brekky in bed. That's my food contribution:)
