Crazy Days

You know that saying "Is the glass half full or half empty?" That's what I've been asking myself about my day. I was trying to see it half-full. I had a really good morning, and then a few things happened that felt like road blocks. Then it was good again. Then it kinda slumped a little. Ever have one of those? If you had to classify that kind of day, what would you say? Would you say it was a good day or a bad day? Or would you average it out and say it was just an OK day? I'm going to say it was a good day. Even though I want to complain, I'm going to focus on the positive aspects. Yep. It was a very good day.

The positive thing that happened had to do with my new venture. Next year, I am branching out and teaching science classes on my own. AND, for the first time I will charge for these services. It is a scary feeling. I put all my info on a website and passed it around to a few people I know. Then you wait and see how many people actually look at the website. Those sweet people passed it on and today my website has 195 hits. So let's subtract 25 from me checking it out and still my home page has had 170 hits. YAY!! Here is a link to it if you want to check it out. And if YOU know of anyone who has 5th - 12th grade home schooled students who need a science class, send them the link. I am in Apopka and would love to see that number go even higher. Even better, I'd love to start getting some sign ups.


OK so here is the random part of my day. On our way back from Alex's speech therapy class I saw another new business up on 436. It was for a self service dog wash. That struck me as funny. I mean why would I drive somewhere and pay someone else to let ME wash my own dog? No offense to anyone and if you've used it, let me know what the benefits are. I am really curious. Then two minutes later I saw a mobile groomer. Now THAT is a service I'd pay for.

Have a great week.
