Today I'm thankful for ...
... ADF scanning! Holy moly is this feature ever useful.
I recently got a Canon MX310 scanner/copier and it is THE machine. I am now such a fan of the automatic document feeder it's crazy. I can put a stack of documents in it, go to Photoshop and say Import, and all get sucked into the machine! Then I can recombine all the files into a PDF to send off. This is SO much faster than what I had to do before it's crazy!

Phase 1 Done
Today I'm thankful for ...
... successfully completing Phase 1 of our Fillmore Grind renovation project. The 3rd coat of paint went up really quick and we had some professional help this time. It's also amazing to see how many other people are getting involved with the project! We had two very good conversations today with people who are going to help with some significant projects. Another individual is looking to help redo the floors and redo the counter area---we don't have a solid commitment yet but we're working to try to figure that part out.

So quick!
Today I'm thankful for ...
... a super speedy second coat of paint. We were very worried that we wouldn't have enough volunteers to get Coat #2 done, but it went up so quickly it was crazy! Also, we had some fine contributions from friends who were able to hit Costco and get us some things to stock the shelves. I also hit Smart and Final and picked up some additional items for Mike.

All wrapped up
Today I'm thankful for ...
... getting the final bits of taping done and some of the plastic sheeting up. This is really going to make it easier to paint because we can be sloppy!

Secret access
Today I'm thankful for ...
... getting access to the coffee shop by getting a set of keys from Mike. Now we can get in and out whenever we want!

Many buttons
Today I'm thankful for ...
... sticking with this electronic music meetup group. We've really got some talented people! I was able to get General Fuzz's latest album. It's really mellow...

Whew
Today I'm thankful for ...
... B's results coming back normal from his endoscopy. It's weird but it looks like he's in OK condition---no ulcers. This has been a frustrating month and him not knowing what's wrong with him has just led to all sorts of problems.

An extra hand
Today I'm thankful for ...
... getting some help from the roommate of one of the coordinators for our painting project. She was a big help spackling the walls.

On the road again
Today I'm thankful for ...
... B having the stamina to do all the driving today. It's 45 miles out to the wedding, then back to his home, then out again, then back again. We spent a lot of time in the car today...

Oy, I need more time
Today I'm thankful for ...
... being able to go at my own pace for our music lessons. I need more time to do my homework, and it's starting to show.
