Checking In

Checking In | Happy Thursday and hope your August is off to a great start. #zen #AustinLife #CheckingIn #amwriting

August is off to a busy start. Work has been hectic with deadlines on a big case and next week I’ll be teaching at our upcoming training conference.

Home life has been just as busy. I’ve been hitting the pool three to four times a week and upping my mileage on runs.

Today, it’s nice to sneak out of the office and catch my breath.

Happy Thursday to you and yours.
