Journal of today’s activities:

The flight that Carole and I took from Seattle did not land until 11:30 last night. We then had to drive for nearly an hour in order to make it to San Jose hotel. We checked in and fell into a quick sleep. At 5:00 am this morning my alarm started blasting. I knew that I didn’t have much time. I hopped into the shower to wake myself, then shaved and dressed. I loaded our bags back into the car and then drove to the Hank Lopez Center in San Jose. I presented the third of four eight-hour seminars on our Straight-A Guide program. I was very grateful to Carole for joining me. She provided more context to the message I deliver on the importance of making values-based, goal-oriented decisions.  We finished the seminar at 5:00 pm and then we had dinner with a friend. We left San Jose around 7:00 and got home around 8:45, exhausted from two long days.
