Efficient

Software

It's 11:46 PM, so of course I'm taking care of some much needed things online.  Things such as downloading software to improve my productivity.  Because, you know, time is money.  And if I can save time by not having to type the same phrases over and over, well more power to me.  I've been fiddling with it for a bit and am most impressed.  I highly recommend it to anyone who frequently types the same information over and over.  Hey!  I do need it - that's pretty much what this blog is!

Anyway, downloading this software made me realize I need my own sign off for emails (mostly because it's an excuse to use the software).  I usually either just type my name, or take care and my name, or something like that.  That's all dull.  Rachele typically signs her initials, so that's out.  Another friend (who is probably not reading this) said her dad often signs his initials and then a phrase using those initials that conveys the content of the messages.  So if he sent a message about a sale at Gymboree and his initials were MS, he could sign off "Mega Sale."  It's a cool idea, but also requires thinking (bad) and having a single, concise message in an email.  As you can see from the need for boxing in my blog posts, I'm not good at single messages.

Why did I even come down this path?  Oh, yeah, I have new software and I wanted to put it to use by coming up with a snazzy ending to emails.  Maybe I'll just go with Snazzily Yours, Megan.  Or I could insert my title: CEO of Casa de TiVo.  Clearly I should be heading off to bed.

Yesterday

Yesterday, Elise came over for the day.  She and Avery had a great time playing on the back deck with the sand and water table.  We also went out front and played ball together.  I then was so tired from our day of playing that I called D and bailed on making dinner for him and a colleague who was in town for the evening. Don't feel too badly for D, though - he went to Paley's Place instead. 

Today

Today, Avery and I got some cleaning done around here, then we both went down for a nap around 10:30.  Wouldn't you know it - we didn't wake up until 1:30.  And this was after a full 11 hours of sleep for me the night before.  I think my problem is allergies.  Being unable to avoid staying up to play on my computer, I'm sure I will regret this tomorrow.

This afternoon, we went over to Sara, Noodle & Koo's house to visit and play.  Emmett was so good.  He just slept and woke up to eat a few times.  It sounds ridiculous, but I can't believe Avery was ever that little.  Alexandra was very generous in sharing her toys with Avery. 

I didn't make it to yoga tonight because D was so late getting home.  However, that was fine because I didn't much feel like going.  We caught up on Survivor and watched a couple of other shows.  

And now, I must finish my moves in Lexulous and then hit the hay.
