Had a busy day . . . every other Friday usually is (payday - today we did payroll for 21 people . . . most of whom we had to wait to clock out in order to process). Today was extra busy though. Had lunch with a friend talked real estate (one of my previous professions; I'm still licensed but not really actively pursuing), then she came and picked up her bird. We have been bird sitting her African Grey parrot for the last two weeks. Louie has been great, talking about a storm, keeping us entertained and touching our hearts. It was hard to let him go home; even our birds (we have 3 cockatiels and a green cheeked conure) were a bit sad to see him go.

And my sister is coming to visit . . . she just got here . . . another busy weekend on tap. Hope yours is GREAT!

The essence of life is not being perfect, impressing people, or succeeding at everything. The essence of life is simply making mistakes and learning from them, surrounding yourself with people that love you when you're being yourself, and getting through the failures so that you can continue improving. ~ Via ‎"gr8quotes"
