    Taught 6 classes (involved reviewing for a quiz in two classes, publication design in another, photo restoration in another, floating images around text using CSS in another, and a self-guided project in another).

    Also spent my "free time" on here, 6 pass scanning old sports photos for a district project as well as troubleshooting a Wordpress site of a colleague.

    Wrapped it all up about 15 minutes ago giving a student advice on setting up an LLC:D...well, my experiences, anyways.

    I scheduled 3 trucks to load, quoted 3 different orders got one. Trained my new secretary on the ways of the world at Matco. Argued with a freight broker because the 3 trucks weren't on time, fired said broker for being a moron. Found another truck to take one of 3 loads then scheduled 3 more for tomorrow. Helped load the one truck then called it a day. Hope tomorrow goes a little better.

    Rained pretty much all day and that doesn't go well with pouring concrete, especially flat work for a pretty anal customer. So rescheduled everything to hopefully lay down both pours tomorrow and Friday so don't haveta work Saturday.

    I packed up a bunch of eggs and drove them up here to Chicagoland. Now, I'll either get back on the road or log onto the work server VPN thing and do some of my real work. Still trying to decide. It's rough. ;)

    Well I got out of bed and I brushed my teeth and went to work in my pajamas like I do pretty much every day. Modeled part of a couple building projects and drew a couple of details. Sent out a few emails. Complained about architects moving stuff for no apparent reason and answered an rfi. Gotta love working from home.

    Started the day giving breathing treatments then got called to the ER to do a couple of EKGs. Then "coded" a young child who had a siezure. Argued with doctor over some orders I didn't feel were appropriate. And then counciled with a family, as the chaplain, who had just lost a family member. All in all a pretty productive day.

    Blessings.........Pastorjim

    Got up extra early
    Got stuck in traffic (wreck) in downtown Dallas
    Made it to the safety orientation for one of our clients with about 3 minutes to spare
    Sat through a 4 hour safety course
    Went and bought new sneakers (holy s*** they're expensive!)
    Worked on a takeoff for a job I'm bidding
    Had a pow wow with the boss dude: strategy and new project pursuits.

    I am totally caught up, that means that can't bill another hour to anyone this week. So I day traded.
