Finding It Hard to Get Out of the House
Posted by Chris
As I've mentioned here before, I usually work away from the office on Fridays. I really enjoy it & find that I look forward to this day more & more as each week goes by. I tend to get more done, feel more comfortable (not having to dress up in my 'work clothes' - yeah, sounds very teenage-ish, I know), drink good coffee, work out at my local Y, and just enjoy my days a lot more than when I'm sitting in front of a monitor, three monitors, in my office at work.
For some reason I'm having a hard time getting away from the house today. I got up at my normal early hour, enjoyed my Special K/Coffee/Sportscenter daily fix, and then proceeded to work (after leaving a voicemail message at LifeWay telling everyone I wasn't there). The boys are coughing up a storm - which, besides not feeling well, is really sad for them as they're missing the last day of VBS ("Gameday Central") at the church. Andrea is gone, taking Emerie to a friend's house to ride with them for her last day. I'm half ready (still need to grab a shower) and then I'll probably drag myself away from this seat long enough to drive to my work-away-from-work (good 'ole Panera) and drink too much coffee, as usual.
I'm feeling a bit backwards today, as it looks like I'll have to drive downtown to LifeWay during my lunch hour in order to hit the credit union & get pre-approved for a car loan (we're going to attempt to finally replace our van tomorrow, God willing). I could have got up & gone in to work, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. So instead of working at LifeWay & leaving to run errands during lunch, I'm going to work away from LifeWay & go there during lunch. :-)
