No Drive Day

Well, I woke up very tired this morning. I think its a hangover from the last two days driving to San Jose at a very early hour. I had a hell of a time getting out of bed. But I did manage it.

I went through the usuals. Let dogs out. Feed cats. Let dogs in. Feed dogs. Make coffee. Make Em breakfast. Make Em lunch. You know, the usuals. I am a domestic god. Maybe I will get a medal some day. Right. Emily went to work and I sat down and had my breakfast. Then, I got on a conference call with a potential client. He is a real estate investor and has a huge potential tax liability buried in his properties. My kind of guy. We chatted for 30 minutes. Hal is going out to Florida soon and will meet with him there. Im to busy to tag along on that.

I am just sitting and blogging now. I am going to the gym very soon. Gotta worry about the personal upkeep. Body of hercules you know. I dont have that, but I can dream. I am going to go get ready.

On my way to rhe gym I noted my low tire air pressure light was on. Great. Probably a hole. I have been driving a ton of crap roads this week. I will go to tire shop after workout.

So, here it is. Live!!
Yes, tire has a hole. Fixing now. I have an appointment at the office but I think I will be late. I WILL be late.

I had to run home and wash off the gym and dress for the day. And get the dogs well situated. Taffy still inside alone in the kennel. She had major surgery and we have to take care of her. The other two go outside.

So, not only was I late because of the tire, there were two accidents on the way to work. And a broken down car. So the 30 min trip took 90 minutes. Like driving to San Jose. Also, I was stopped in traffic and one car coming up behind me musta been sleeping. I looked up in the rear view in time to see him barreling down on me at 60. I braced, he slammed on the brakes and took a 45 degree angle skid directly at me. He managed to come under control and shoot off into the shoulder and pass me. Whats funny is, this car, reminded me that this damn near exact same thing happened on the drive to San Jose yesteday. Someone locked up behind me while I was at dead stop. It also happened Monday but a little different because I had to lock up and the guy behind me as well. I need to stay off the roads.

Anyhow, met my clients in the parking lot at work. We walked over to the Elephant Bar and had lunch. Btw, the client was an hour late. Its just that day. We had several deals to discuss and managed to get through all of them in one sitting. Amazing

I am back in the office. Been through all my emails. Made my call backs. Set two appointments for tomorrow and saturday. I am productive. I spent more time cleaning up old files. Ran through my emails and did a little work. My day had been shortened by the morning problems and going to lunch. I left for home around 530.

Emily called right as I was about to leave. She wanted me to stop and pick up something for dinner. Which I did.

Got home quickly, which is nice but not common. Emily was sewing. She is making Christmas gifts for her mom and others. Sorry, cant give details or risk spoiling the surprise. I can keep a secret.

We ate dinner. It was fine, and it had turkey in it. We are now sitting in the living room, Emily continued on the sewing and I did whatever else needed doing. And sat and blogged, too. The dogs had it figured out
I think it’s bedtime.
