Days since my release from 26 years in prison: 39
Time I woke: 4:00 am
Journal of activities:

Today I was scheduled to attend a sales meeting in Los Angeles. It was a wonderful event. I left my home very early so that I could make a flight out to San Francisco by 6:45. Soon after landing, I joined my friends Justin and Lori. We drove to Seal Beach for a breakfast meeting with MaryLou Vachet. MaryLou was our first client and she is becoming a friend as well. We discussed the direction that we were taking our program and plans for building capacity. Both Justin and I are thrilled Lori has agreed to join our board of directors. We’re moving forward, working to build a sustainable organization Lori is a third-year law student and a great contributor. Then we went to meet with other educational administrators in a different county and we secured a verbal commitment for another purchase order. We’re moving in the right direction. I spent the afternoon with mother and grandmother, then used my laptop to prepare for future work.
