Your wish is my command...

Friday
5:00PM - Clear desk and file work for Monday. Read, review, and file e-mail inbox to zero. Quick scan of e-mail pending items to ensure nothing urgent was missed. Computer OFF (If you’re lucky I might check my e-mail via my blackberry but chances are I won’t reply. Computer gets turned back when I get to the office Monday morning.)

Here’s what I’m busy doing:

Sneak Out Saturday – taking my nephew to The Donut House in our jammies for donuts and coffee/hot cocoa.

Auntie Day – taking my niece to “the coffee store” for hot cocoa then shopping at Michaels for craft stuff.

Winter Carnival – Going to a local ski resort to watch the torch parade and fireworks followed by pizza at the pizza parlor.

Hiking – either along the lake or in the mountains.

God’s Beautiful Creation Exploration – taking my niece (this year I’ll take my nephew) on a hike to view God’s Beautiful Creation (she complains, I carry the backpack of snacks and the treasure jar – go figure).

Boating – meeting some friends on the lake (obviously NOT in the winter) where we tether the boats and float, swim or otherwise...

8:45AM – Rush out the door grabbing a box of cereal on the way out hoping to beat client to the office.

8:55AM – Arrive at office. Client already came and left but was able to leave everything for me.

9:00AM – Heat a cup of tea and make a bowl of cereal to start the day.

9:05AM – Open e-mail and Morning Coffee to check my daily reading sites.

9:15AM – Client calls while I’m doing my morning reading to say he can’t find the e-mail with the address of his morning appointment. Stop reading to log into his computer and text him the address.

9:20AM – Return to morning reading.

9:25AM – Client calls back asking for another address that he can’t...
