I usually have a plan for my day. Sometimes I go to great lengths to secure the schedule. And, most often, life takes me by the reins ... enjoy the ride.Today was like that. I sent my son off to school (love the big yellow school bus) and joined seven girl friends for lunch at Thai Spice, a favorite for Thai food in Tri Cities! Though I am not typically a fan of "trough" style dining, the buffet here was fresh and fun. Every dish was delightful, especially when washed down with the decadent Thai Iced Tea!
As I departed to run some errands of choice, I was called to the school where my son awaited stitches. He took one on the chin when falling from the monkey bars. Thankfully we were near KGH Walk-in Care where we were treated immediately and well. He is all sewed up, and very brave.
Now, I am confronted with life's two absolutes. Death and taxes. Our accountant of, well, let's just say many years, died. Meanwhile, we had the great fortune of meeting Tom O'Brien of LeMaster Daniels at a charity auction, and so signed on with this local firm. A beautiful office was comfortable while I completed the new client paperwork. Then, in what can be considered enjoyable when dealing with taxes, I spent about an hour going over the numbers. It always feels better getting past tax season. Now one year is behind and another ahead of me.
Finally home, I relaxed with a glass of Vireo from Goose Ridge. As I enjoyed the aromatic influence of this blend, I amused myself with recollections and comparisons of the days - the one I planned and the one I had. My son is proud of his new scar - we have learned that almost every guy from 5-80 has one similar on the chin.
Catch a current in Tri Cities.
