The First Monday




The first day of 90 days away from the office got off to a slow start. I woke up to about 2 inches of snow cover in Westerville, OH; less than what I left behind in Minnesota on Friday, but more than I expected to find in Ohio. Anyway it was a little weird waking up on a Monday morning at 7:30 and not having to roll out of bed. Tracy and I went out for coffee and then she got back to work. Richard is considering a run for the Ohio House of Representatives so I agreed to shoot some photos of him around the county for his campaign. I spent most of the afternoon with Val, Richard and the kids. For dinner we all went to BJ's. Snow is on the ground so my mama was snug as a bug in a rug at her house all day but we talked over the phone. She talked with grandpa Woodrow who is doing well but misses grandma and said he still expects to see her around the house. He’s using his cell phone and is planning to read Morgan’s sci/ fi novel and also plans to give a copy to his brother, James. I managed to complete 1 of 6 interview reports today and actually promised myself that I wouldn’t blog until I completed at least one report. I also completed photo shoots, uploaded, edited, and cataloged over 100 photos for Richard and Val. Tracy and I watched some of the Michael Jackson 30th Anniversary special (2001) and hung out in front our computers in the evening. I talked with John; he’s having a ball with his daughters and cousins in Florida, he told me of the breakup of a couple I met over Christmas, because they seemed like such an awful match I practically cheered when I heard the news! The plan for tomorrow is to take Xavier and Gabbie to see Alvin and the Chipmunks:The Squeakquel at 11:00 AM, I can't wait!. I also need to mail my new coat and knockoff Jimmy Choo handbag back home, meet up with mom and the gang for lunch and eventually make my way to the airport for my evening flight home. It was a good first day but I didn’t accomplish very much so I need to step up my game.
