On being 'overcome by events'...

I'm sure I could have done worse today, but so far, events have conspired to keep me from getting to a lot of the to-dos I'd put down for myself today. I'm at the store right now, so it's a good thing I have the list online; I've been readjusting things and figuring out what is realistic in the time left today and tonight.

Cheers...

A different point of view...

In the car going home after shutting up the store, Galina sighed and said, "Well, it's been a very productive day."

I was stunned.

Now, we did do two runs to the waste station (or, rather, I did the runs), which pretty much cleared out the space under the verandah. And the architect did come by earlier in the day to show us his plans for this place, which turned out to be fairly impressive -- certainly much better than the other proposals we had received from others -- so that was a plus as well.

Nevertheless, I've got 3-4 hours in which to try to put a dent in the rest of the stuff I'd planned for today, so I had better get cracking.

Cheers...
