...times two

It's that time of year! I received furniture yesterday, a chair and ottoman, desk and desk chair and then an accessory order arrived. The driver was telling me how they have doubled their delivery routes but have to do it in half of the time. He had just finished a delivery in Center City, apparently hit a bridge and was afraid that he was going to be fired. How do you feel lately? Like you are doing twice as much to stay even? I totally understand. It can be challenging, to say the least but please hang tough. If only the strong survive then we all will. Even if everything we do is times two. On this day in 2002, then Governor of California Gray Davis announced that the state would face a record budget deficit of $35 billion, roughly double the figure reported during his reelection campaign one month earlier. Oops. I ran a yard short of a tassel trim this week so I kinda know how he felt. Have a great day, do it right the first time and double step if need be.
