Shhh! They Don't Know I'm Here!

After a good night's sleep and a solemn promise that my brother and I would sit down and knock some stuff out with his business this afternoon, and after doing my invoicing and some client work, I ran upstairs to see how the nephews were doing and lo and behold both are off with friends off to see the new "Mr. Peabody" movie with them.

I suddenly found myself with a whole heady half hour of me-time. So where am I?

At the best community in the world, that's where!

I'm really missing my daily cuppa "Can-do" attitude from all of you here at Wealthy Affiliate. Kim's business is getting there, but it's a huge undertaking and it will be a while yet before my time is fully my own again. I am enjoying it, though. He's my favorite youngest brother ever (notice how I hedged there with the term "youngest") and I love getting this off the ground with him. And, truth be told, it may be doing me some good, because unless things stay fresh I sometimes start to fret and begin trying to kick over the traces of daily routine, no matter what those traces may be.

I am trying to do this very quietly so the rest of the family isn't aware I am actually home; when my sister-in-law told me where the kids had gone, I told her it was just as well because I needed to go see a client anyway, and that is true but there is no reason they have to know exactly when that is.

So I think I'll roar around WA for a few minutes and see if I can help or just put my two cents' worth in, and I just wanted to let you all know how happy I am to see you! I am smiling a huge smile right now, just thinking of you all.

Don't tell the family I'm here...

I won't tell them. I'll just ask them if they know? LOL

Aaargh! :D

Your secret is safe with me ;) Enjoy your "me" time.

I did, Kary. I miss running around this site. I'm so glad everyone seems to be doing well! It makes me happy just thinking about it.

So lovely to see you again. We won't tell - it's our secret :-) :-)

(Tip-toes over and gives two thumbs up)

Don't worry, we will keep it quiet. What are you up to now Max?

My brother is developing a special warning system and now it's time to start the really fun stuff--tweaking the finished product and creating a sales platform. Plus my job and crazy family life. Life is sweet. Poor, but sweet.

I always love reading your stuff. I feel your pain. As the mom of two young boys, I usually "hide" for a few minutes whenever I can. Hope you weren't discovered. I know the feeling... love but "ugh" when it's finally time to show up again. Thanks for visiting us!

Our hearts are one, sister. Our hearts are one. :)

Nice to hear from you again Max! Sounds like you are really enjoying yourself! Lydia.

Yes, I am. Especially right now; at first it was so nuts I kept feeling like my hands were slipping off the wheel, if you know what I mean. But the work involved is more organized currently, so we actually have some sense of direction. I'm grateful my brother is letting me help--it's really exciting to get a new business off the ground.

Max, nice to see you roaring around WA, even if it is for a short visit. I enjoyed reading your post. ~ Jude

Oh, it's Jude! I've missed you! Thanks kindly.

You've no idea how much I appreciate reading a reader. Beautifully executed, engaging with a feeling of mischievous, playful conspiracy of hush. Love it. Think I'm going to read it again.

Wow! What a lovely comment. Now I'm sorry I didn't go back and fix that muddy sentence at the beginning. Thank you so much, Oscar.

Not at all, is lovely.

Lovely to read something from you again. All the very best

1

Thank you, Neil! I'm very happy to be here, even if it is just for a little while.

You seem like a lady with a good time management system Max.

1

Ha-ha-ha! LOL!

...I mean, thanks! :)
