Back to REality

"Oooooh man. I'm stuffed...." A common theme everyday after Thanksgiving! I love leftovers.

I'm dreading the workweek. My Father, whom I work with doing commercial furniture sales (he isn't the business owner), is out for the next 1 1/2 weeks so I get to manage all the business coming in. In addition our sales support left the company about a month ago so I'm going solo... I'm planning on achieving all the goals below still!

Last week I made sure to spend most of my time with my family. It was nice. The picture below is of just a portion of my family. We had (68) people over to our house in total. This is actually at a bar the night after thanksgiving.
