Great Minds Think Alike (but you already know that)

Early rise to get kids off to school. Tommy went willingly to PE even hough he had the written excuse to not participate. He's moving better but still healing. Lauren and I parked at the creek trail, ran into and briefly said hello to Ian and his long time friend, and we hit the trail hard. Aggressively fast-walking to get a full 2 mile walk under out belt. 1 mile out, 1 mile back. I was working up a sweat, and feeling the tendons stretching, which is greatly needed. The sedentary nature of my daily routine warrants these maintenance effort. It took about ~12min or so to get the the 1 mile mark and we returned at a brisk but reduced pace, still getting back just in time watch a possibly wounded (and far more dangerous) skunk walking slowly across the trail before us, and still making it to drop off with 4 minutes to spare. Walked the dog when I got home. I'd started my day with a personal plan and vocal proclamation to aggressively work with focus and determination, and I succeeded. I managed the team sprint planning discussions, Shepard'd numerous escalation, discussed, defended and promoted the team's performance in a sprint review, and disturbed a 1st draft of what I consider a well worded client-facing FAQ related to the hashing of client information, explaining how the methods in place ensure confidentiality while enabling us to find and suppress redundancy in our optin collections. Whew! I stayed engaged without distraction beyond a brief run at lunch of our camera to Tommy for his use at a friends PM basketball game. It felt great. I love a good focused workday. I got Tommy around 7.15pm. We ran by Pano to get his backpack. Lauren called and asked him to get her hockey gear from inside the house, due to him mom being away. Then, the highlight of my day, the follow up response and acquisition of a vintage typewriter that I have been seeking sporadically since failing to have the foresight to snag it the last time I came across it in a thrift store. I'll write about that elsewhere. Meanwhile, Lauren and Deegan were at Sharks Ice skating. I dropped her bag/gear to her and started writing in Stanleys. Of course like clockwork, the text from her came shortly after what I assume was her arrival time asking why the door was unlocked and why the lights were on. Because somehow it's my responsibly to manage. I replied with a brief informational response and returned to my writing. Retuned Deegan. Returned home. "Typed" for the 1st time in decades.
Gratitude: A daughter that wants me healthy.
Goal: Another aggressively produced work day.
Anticipation: Doing some more typing.
