I did not have the chance to do three good things yesterday, primarily because I was at a conference and did not get back to my hotel room until very late. I am doing yesterday and today now.
10/3 -- three good things about Lily
1. I went to breakfast with Lily before leaving for Philadelphia. We had bagels and coffee (and chocolate milk). it occurred to me, during our conversation, how fast she is growing up. Her growing up is not a good thing, but the conversation and breakfast was.
2. Lily loves to read. she always has a book and she has begun reading chapter books (think Encyclopedia Brown). This is good thing.
3. Finally, Lily is fun, athletic, funny, smart, curious, and unbelievably kind hearted. I love her. She is a good thing.
10/4 -- three good things.
1. I was able to go to Philadelphia for a conference and see some attorneys that I do not get to see very often (except when in a hearing against them). It was a good time and this was a good thing.
2. I was able to eat dinner at Del Frisco's in Philadelphia. We had good wine, a very good bone in Filet Mignon, and good company. This was a good thing.
3. Last, but not least, the conference was good. I saw some good attorneys, learned from what they had to say, and met more people that I wanted to see. This was a good thing.
I hope that everybody has a good night/day.

It is what the title says, it is simply what I think. nothing more and nothing less.

Week 2 / Day 3
It is day 3 of the second week. Generally, things are good. As is to be expected, though, some days are more difficult than others. That happened today, but there were three good things.
1. At 3:00 this afternoon, I left my office and went outside. It was a beautiful day and I wanted/needed a short walk to clear my head. It worked. This was a good thing.
2. I got my haircut today -- this is not the good thing, though, I'm happy its finished. Instead, on my way back, I wandered through Kiener Plaza. I don't know that I ever really noticed the fountain on the west side of the plaza. It looks good. This was a good thing.
3. I am leaving for Philadelphia tomorrow for a conference that I really enjoy attending. The conference is for the attorneys that work in the area in which I work. Not exciting to many people, but I get to see attorneys from around the country that I normally only talk to the phone. This is a good thing.
I expect to write tomorrow, but I will be at dinner with a large group so the post will be late or very early Friday morning. I hope that everybody has a great night / day tomorrow.

WK 2 / Day 2
Today was my youngest son's birthday. He is 3. I am going to make the 3 things about him.
1. Lincoln is 3. He is big and thick. He is very strong. He is also funny, laughs all the time, and loves to make jokes. I hope he never loses that. This is a good thing.
2. Lincoln is the youngest of 3. His sisters are 4 and 7 (or close). They really care of him. When he cries, they try to comfort him (unless they caused it), whne he tells a joke, they laugh...the oldest reads to him. They love him. I know they always will, but I hope they continue to show him. This is a good thing.
3. Lincoln wants to drive trucks. Big trucks. He wants to be a fire fighter. That is his singular goal in life. I can think of worse things for him to want to be. Whatever he does, he does it hard. He runs fast, he jumps hard, he plays hard (he hits hard). I hope he doesn't lose that. I hope that he remembers to work hard and then play hard.
I love the little guy (and he won't be the little guy for long). I hope everybody has a great day / night.
Until tomorrow

Week 2 / Day 1
Week 2 / Day 8
This will be brief because I'm tired (of course), but we march on...
1. I had a productive meeting with a client this morning (he actually followed my advice). This is a good thing (I'd give more details but he is charged with a crime)
2. I had dinner with the kids today. We ate vegetables and turkey pasta. After dinner, I offered money if they would clean up their toys. In a rare occurrence they did it (so they got paid). Lily read a book to Lucy, Lincoln, and me and they went to bed peacefully. Nice evening. This was a good thing.
3. The weather today was outstanding (in St. Louis). The temperature was nice, good breeze, and generally very pleasant. This was a good thing.
I hope that everybody has a great night and day tomorrow.
Until next time
