Room with a View

Look Around

Minutes ago, while I was sitting poolside with the kids enjoying the music, sunshine, blue sky, banana daiquiri and sound of crashing waves, I asked them, "Look around, what do you see?"

Son #1: I look around and feel lucky.

Son #2: I look around and see happiness.

Agreed.

Prayers Selfish Prayers

I woke up super early this a.m. and, instead of going to the gym, decided at the very last minute to pack for vacation tomorrow. I felt convicted to go to Bible study tonight and start my vacation off right.

Instead, our flight to NYC was canceled for tomorrow and we're re-booked on a flight this afternoon. Hello urgent rush. Laptop backup. Financial proformas, income statements, balance sheets, graphs, working capital, cash flow analysis on hold  . . . carry laptop? Do in hotel?

So I have two prayers:
1) Thank you God for insisting that I pack this morning!
2) Please, please, please let us get out of JFK safely before the storm arrives

Oh, did I say two? Make that three:
3) Please let us travel safely throughout our adventure and have heaps o' fun!

EBITDA can wait. Pina colada cannot. I know my priorities.
