Thank you for saying what you said. Yesterday I finished up a big chunk of work early, and usually I feel like, "OK, what do I need to start on next?" But there was nothing immediately pressing, so I went outside and played with our dog for a long time, and messed around in our garden. It felt great! And I didn't feel guilty about not working - because I had read this post.<BR/><BR/>Thank you. ~ ErinLaCourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01142786661260349144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13946500.post-44409994978949684522007-05-29T20:50:00.000-07:002007-05-29T20:50:00.000-07:00awe, Gheesh more to read?

I get up when I want and spend all day with my wife and kids without much to do but enjoy life... except on Saturdays when I shoot weddings and I love shooting weddings. By the way, I bought your ShowItWeb software yesterday and posted my first wedding with it and already I'm having great responses from it. I can't wait till the bride sees the slideshow (I bet she'll cry).
