Challenge 84: Listen to at least one Open Topic Call

April 4, 2010

In my house, growing up, the appropriate thing to say on this holiday (and every other one for that matter) is "Happy Easter Egg!" It's said with excitement and is usually the first thing spoken upon entering the house. I woke up with that message on my Facebook and a phone call (later) from my mom. Traditions are warm and fuzzy. A reminder that you've been you for a long time, and that some things stay constant. So HAPPY EASTER EGG everyone.

The pets were out of control this morning. Seriously. Waking up, meowing, playing while it was still dark. I could only ignore them for so long before I felt guilty that the noise from their feet might be waking up our downstairs neighbors. I got up, let them out, and went back to sleep for a few.

This morning I took Coach out sorta first thing. I hadn't done a morning walk with him for a few days and decided to take a different path than I'm used to. I turned left instead of right and saw lots of new houses and yards to ogle. Generally, I like going the way I'm used to, I like knowing exactly how much time it is going to take me to do something, so I generally opt for the Bushrod loop (exactly 37 minutes), but figured that since I didn't have any real plans today, I could go crazy and try something new. I'm glad I did it...although I enjoy the Bushrod loop more (better houses and yards to fantasize about having).

My biggest challenge for today was to finish the foundations packet for my new client. I've sort of been putting it off since Friday, and although I worked on it yesterday, it still wasn't finished. Well...it's finished now and sent off. That was going to be my challenge, so I'll come up with a new one.

Lately I've been thinking a lot about my time and how much it is worth. The number seems to be growing.
