Today is the oldest each of us has ever been
and the youngest we will ever be again.

In other words, life is short and the clock is ticking. It’s kind of scary, but it’s true.

If there was ever a perfect day to stand strong beside your values, your ambitions, and what’s best for you, that day is today.

4/18/14 Veterinarian, Continental Tavern, Rojo’s, Easter Eggs, Blue Dog

4/18/14

Weasel in ACTION!!!

We love to see her active in any capacity.
She will be 14 yrs old this year.

Weasel has been slowing down recently.
Chester had a Veterinarian Appointment today
so we thought we’d take Weasel along too
& discuss her “issues” with the veterinarian.

btw – we LOVE Main Street Animal Hospital

http://msah.vetstreet.com/

in the consult room – just couches & chairs.
the Doctors sit on the floor with the dogs.

After the vet the dogs got manicures

Chester with his big jar of pills.
He has allergies & this helps.

Appointment at the Continental Tavern.
Manager Ross holding the new menu my
creative services department made for him.

(Ross bought two new wines from me today!)

All the wines on this list are MINE!!
He has another “regular” list, but mine are special.

After Continental Tavern I had a meeting
at Rojo’s Roastery today in Lambertville, NJ.
A fancy coffee shop.

I met with Michael Lewis of Homestead Coffee Roasters.

http://www.homesteadcoffeeroasters.com/

I was introduced to Michael at a restaurant
in Doylestown last week.
I suggested to him that we network amongst ourselves.
I am going into restaurants & they need coffee.
He’s going into restaurants & they need Wine.

It’s a no brainer.
We’ve already made recommendations to each other.
This could be a really good relationship.

Macchiato – I really needed some caffeine!

A small Calf or small decaf??

friend Tanya’s new apartment
Tanya, Lily, & Alex with Sweetie Pie

Guess who colored THIS egg???

A quick game with Lily before meeting Michael

perfectionism messes everything up.
You start to stress, thinking,
“I can’t do this perfectly, so I’m not going to do it at all.”
It’s the all-or-nothing mentality,
and I promise that it isn’t doing you (or me) any favors.
