I knew that I had to get up early for Marv and I also wanted to do my blog entry first thing before I got into my work day and forgot.  But I was surprised when I rolled out of bed at 5:55 a.m.  I showered and dressed after reading my chapter and doing my 41and I was in the office just after 7:30 a.m.  To my chagrin the blog was still down.  You would have seen that it did come up eventually and I did get Wednesday's entry retyped and my entry for last night.  Then I got to work.  Amid my preparation of stuff for Richard (I got Marv's papers ready last night.) I drove Sheila to her school and the did an errand.  Just before I got back home Sheila called and said that she got fired (just kidding) and I had to go back and pick her up.  Actually a mistake had been made and the job was double booked so they paid her for an hour and I got her back home.  I kept busy until Richard got here and then my worked shifted from busy to chaos as I was under the gun to get stuff ready asap for him to take and get done today.  As most of you know that is the way that my work works:  at some times it is piled high and demands immediate attention.  Richard helped out some and the work got done and he was off and I was able to have my breakfast.  The rest of the day has been more relaxing.  I still kept busy but the chaos was gone and it was down to laid back.  I drove Sheila around for 'rounds' with the deal that she would go and do the work that she does for me and I would drive her to Glover's Nursery in West Jordan.  She decided our dinner destination and we ended up eating at Joyluck Restuarant.  Then I turned into a couch potato and puddered around in the office until now and this. I will now go into semi-retirement for two days and try to be creative and productive and even have a little fun.  Looks like next week will be very different.  Watch and see what it brings to the 'founding parents'.
