The Coons love crunchy dog food, ya know.
We still have the Coon family come by every night. They've gotten their winter coat. Big ole fuzz balls. Not as many come by on the real cold nights, but I always have food out there regardless.

Ha! You and everybody else, John. I don't know how I do it. I'll pay for it one day probably.
I wear my friends out with my schedule.
In fact, I've run a few of our associates off when they learned how hard it is to do our kind of work.
We have a huge deck on the second floor of our offices overlooking the river. Beautiful setting. Great for client functions, etc. I'll tell new associates on days and nights they are sort of complaining about working so much that they have not seen it hard yet until they watch the sunrise off that deck. They look at me like I'm crazy and I tell them I've worked all night several times and watched that sun come up on our deck. One told me, "Well, I'm not doing that."
Uh, she didn't last long.
Like I say, Cactus, I plan to be awesome by the time I die.

How's your Mom? Any better?
Enjoy the Thanksgiving Holiday my Friend. Hope you are not on call.
We'll be going into the city with close friends. We've become "family" to each other. Lots of food and spirits.
Later.

Had a real good week here. Traded each day, 2 or 3 stocks plus SPX.

Keep working at being awesome. Nothing like setting high goals. <G>
There is quite a difference in attitude between those who go to work at their jobs and those who constantly strive to be the best they can in their careers. The "job" mentality wants to know how much is necessary to be deemed "enough". They aren't the ones that end up running the company (though they are quick to chime in on how things should be better). The career mindset, on the other hand, includes a total commitment to being the best one can be. The career folks are the ones who risk having morning coffee on your deck.
The funny thing (in my experience) is that neither type truly understands the other.
Have I mentioned this book to you? If you're into leisure reading (in all of your spare time<G>), this one is right up your alley, I bet.

Let's give thanks for all of our blessings. My best to you and yours.
