8:50: I wake up to a vendor calling the office and just ignore it.
10:00: I am up and awake. I take out Buster and prepare to get a shower.
10:15: A client emails and calls me about not being able to print. I remote into the computer and change a setting on the printer, and the printer starts working again.
10:30: While I am on the computer I check a few admin things.
10:45: I shave with an electric clipper, waiting on my electric razor to come in.
10:50: I am into the shower, the first shower in over a month with all the biopsies going on and unable to get stitches and skin wet…
11:30: I am out of the shower. Wow, that felt good, to just let the water massage your head and back. A little to warm maybe, I need to remember to not have the water on so hot, it just weakens me for some reason.
11:40: I am back on the computer updating the world on what I have been doing so far today. I think I will head over to the office soon, just gotta grab a bite to eat before heading out.
12:10: So after 2 left over Wendy’s Double Stacks, I am feeling better. Time for me to head out and head to the office. Let’s see if my van starts, haven’t started it in a little under 3 weeks.
12:20: I am at my office. I talk to a client I see in the parking lot, and then head up to my office and get started on catching up on mail and additional admin work.
1:30: Sending out Invoices and Monthly Statements.
2:00: More admin work, wow this stuff piles up when you are not here…
3:00: I call a client who had issues faxing and walk them through the steps of faxing again. I also show the client how to now use their printer to scan to their computer over the wireless network since I installed the software last week.
3:20: My wife arrives at the office with a client’s computer that will not power on after a lightning strike. I bring the handtruck downstairs and bring it back up rather than carrying it.
3:30: I call back the client I briefly worked with yesterday on installing the full printer software for scanning and printing at the office.
4:00: I am done with the clients, back to office work.
5:00: Jamie, my business partner, drops by for a little bit to let rush hour traffic drop down before continuing home to Chalmette.
5:45: Jamie leaves and I go back to some admin work before its time to head home to let some additional rush hour traffic to drop down.
6:15: I go across the hall and start troubleshooting the fax machines. I fine that they are on fine and super fine which is not good for VOIP faxing. I change these to standard. I also change the fax type to just text, not text/photo. I turn off the ECM (Error Correction Mode) and I make sure the speed is set at 9600bps for transmitting. I set the number of redials to 10. I also correct the fax numbers in the machines as they are not setup correctly. I find one of the two fax machines is plugged into the phone port and not the line in port. I send a number of test faxes to my fax machine in my office, with better results. I will check with them tomorrow to see how their faxing is.
7:00: Time for me to go home. I spent a little more time than I wanted working on the fax machines, but it had to be done.
7:10: I arrive home and the food is ready. My parents fried some minute steaks, cauliflower, and eggplant. They also baked some sweet potato french fries.
8:00: I turn on AMC, tonight is Scarface on MOB WEEK.
8:15: My wife comes home and I finish eating, but its too late I have eaten too much. YUM YUM! I am definitely feeling better if I can eat too much…
8:45: I test out my new electric razor my dad picked up from Walmart today since it was delivered via Site to Store. The razor works great. I just need to let the AA batteries that I have completely charge.
9:15: I am just relaxing in the Lazy-Boy. I am stuffed too much food, but its a good feeling 🙂
11:15: I am actually in bed. Just researching a few things on the computer with the rerun of Scarface playing in the background 😛
