Blather

This morning, as my wife and I walked from our cars (we had reason to take both today) in the parking lot to the office door, we noticed the temperature was very cool, a truly welcome respite from our blistering summer weather. It was cool enough this morning that a sweater would have been comfortable...but the afternoon sun has long since swept away the coolness of this morning.

I left the office early today, about 3:30, to stop by the pharmacy to picku up a couple of my many prescriptions, then went to the post office to claim our mail (and restart delivery) that had been held since last Thursday. The mail was, by and large, junk mail with no appeal whatsoever. But picking it up was a treat; I was out of the office before closing time. I need to do that a bit more often, but then I need to devote more time to getting the job done, satisfying clients, and getting more to make up for the dwindling revenues.

For now, though, I think I need to get away from the office more frequently just to clear my head and prevent me from complete psychological burnout. It's strange to feel that burnout almost immediately upon returning from a 5-day hiaitus from work.

I'm blathering on. I will stop.
