    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.

    What's up with all the hipster new businesses in the neighborhood not posting their hours? Of course the newest brewery isn't going to be open at 6:30 a.m. when I went past on my run but if they had their hours posted I could better make plans to come try their beers. Seems like almost all these businesses do the same thing.

    You're supposed to find them on FB, not just show up.

    In my opinion, businesses often do a lousy job, both on FB and on their websites, of stating essential information, like operating hours. It baffles me.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

    I am sure you handled it the best way possible, Indy. Go do something nice for yourself!
    I am not having bad work days, but a colleague is. I'm privy to the stuff that is happening to her and it is upsetting me. This has nothing to do with clients.
    I figured out I was wrong about how many more total hours I needed for my license and I realized after recalculating with the correct number, I will have the hours at the end of the third week in September... the day I do my century! I am starting to think about how I will terminate with my clients. My goal is be out of there whenever I get that piece of paper (October?) and take a little "rest," leading up to celebrating my 60th birthday on 11-4.
