If you are not careful, something like this could have a negative impact on your drive to the office. And, as a matter of fact, it did. It was not as bad as it could have been, but it did cause a certain amount of delay, and there was nothing I could do about it. It was too early for the traffic to be backing up because of the President's visit to Austin, so it had to be something else. And, in fact, it was!Finally made it to the office, and it was really a pretty darn good day. Around noon time, I headed off to Costco to buy supplies for a break sponsorship we are providing tomorrow, and traffic on Highway 290 (which goes straight to the airport) was indeed already backing up (most likely because of the President's visit). He was due to arrive at 12:05, and word was he arrived 15 minutes early. STEER CLEAR!
Made it back to the office, got some more work done and headed out just after four o'clock. Not too much trouble getting home, just the 'usual delays' and the Pres was long gone by that time. He does not have to stop for red lights!
The chickens are all doing well, and they really like the figs, so at least that is one place I can get rid of some of them. Otherwise, we are all pretty much figged-out!Tomorrow is Melody's birthday. I called her to surprise her a day early with birthday wishes, and that was a good thing, since she will be out-of-pocket all day tomorrow. WE LOVE YOU MELODY!
Deeds, Actions, Changes, PRESIDENTIAL VISITS, Kindnesses, Whirled Peas, FUN!
