Another in a constant repetition of insignificant days

Apple Store Mall at Millenia — Apple Watch window display.

West Orange High School Bus line up — Dozens of busses.

Just another insignificant day:

Visit Apple store to try on the Apple Watch…the one ordered a week ago.
Visit Tax Preparer to pay for completed 2014 tax return and pick up personal files.
Visit West Orange High School Ninth Grade Center to verify 2015-16 school enrollment process.

The only one that was planned was number two.

The most significant was number three. Had felt a terrible sense of disorganization thinking i had majorly dropped the ball. Turns out, there are two more months before High School registration begins.

Our Tax Preparer saved us $14k.

Luck favors the prepared.

At the end of a long, arduous journey, when we discovered a vacant two acre lot at a crazy price near Magic Kingdom, luck prevailed.

It’s astonishing how simple it is to bring joy to our life. A park bench on a Saturday afternoon, waiting to pick up your child from a visit with his friend.

Personal organization often consists of being able to make the most of doing nothing but waiting.

How we organize our life is like a computer circuit board

Middle School classroom science night — In the middle of the classroom is a pile of disassembled electronics to “play with”.

Our life is similar to a computer circuit board. The more efficiently things are organized to produce results, the better results we get.

Likewise, when one or more critical elements of our lives are misplaced or left out, optimization is devastatingly reduced.
