Cool and Bright

This has been a rather surprising day. I arrived around 9:00 and a new client was sitting in the lobby waiting for me with a story and a check (just what I wanted, and it isn't even Father's Day). When I got through with dealing with him, Patti was in and I gave her the check and then found out that they have scheduled a closing for tomorrow morning at 10:00. A real closing too. So I ran over to the courthouse and ran the title and now we are waiting for a couple to be available for signing a corrective deed so we can close.

Then I had three new titles to run for a law firm in Decatur, with one in Savannah. I would ordinarily back out, but it might be worth it to go to Savannah for a day. Seafood and History, a killer combination. And all on the office dime.

Of course, the three of us are now scheduled to walk for the church in the cancer walk on Friday or Saturday morning. That will be fun.

We let Kate sleep this morning, which she did like a champ. Tonight, she gets Tex as a bed partner. That may affect her sleep patterns.

Kate needs to start looking for a job for the summer. And we need to find a way to deal with the clutter issue. We have gallons of beer and wine at the house now. Tammy and Sue were quite generous with that. I would really like to eat some of my pimento cheese, but I am going to take Kate to lunch after my 1:00 o'clock closing and my meeting with criminal client three.

I am bumping along alright, but have several issues to deal with at this point. I think I am in the real mood for Mexican food right now, but the good Mexican food is a little far away, near the house.

Cindy wants to go walking around Cissie's house this afternoon. That will be fun. The weather has cooled off a bit and the sky is clear. No more thunder boomers like Saturday and no "Gone with the Wind" like Sunday.

I enjoyed meeting Kate's PC parents, Anita and Charlie Gustafson, on Sunday. Their house is really nice. But, boy, the wind was blowing the bushes and trees. I know I will remember watching a lantern hanging in the breezeway outside their den swinging back and forth as we talked in the relative safety of their den.

So, a good Tuesday, all in all, so far.
