Magic I Saw this Week: This week I ended up working from home two days. On Wednesday, I stayed home because Nathaniel came home sick from school on Tuesday and we had made a doctor’s appointment for him Wednesday morning. I wanted to be the one to take him, so I worked from home all day. It turned out he had pneumonia so I am glad we went to the doctor. On Friday, I picked up my friend from the dentist after she had an operation and was not safe to drive home by herself. So that meant that I got to exercise the magic of being able to adjust my schedule as needed this week. That was wonderful. We also got a couch, a rug and lamp in our office this week which was super magical.
Magic I Made this Week: The stuff I list up top was magic I made. I also took several walking meetings. I cleaned up my calendar a bit. I learned a bit of metrics. I took David to work on Saturday so he could work. All of which was magical for me.
