You see where I'm going with this? Keep the schedule. I regenerate by taking a step back and evaluating.

Here are a few I need to put in right now:
1. take wife on a date.
2. Play a board game with the kids.
3. get a haircut (Am I the only writer that has this problem?)
4. Go outside and walk for 15 minutes. (take the dog along).
5. Cook supper and do the dishes(again when I am writing, I get in a zone and all of sudden the day is GONE)

If so, how many miles? The things that come to mind are:

– Catalytic converter
– Battery
– Sensor
– None of the above

If the mechanics find nothing wrong, it's probably something like a sensor or the battery giving you fits. Hard to say without symptoms or any computer diagnostic, but I'd be thinking sensor first.

Honda can't get it turned off and none of the other mechanical types I've asked about it have been able to… surprised it hasn't burned out. 😉

My sister-in-law is going to bring the kids out (ages 5 and 6). It's "spring break" for them, but the goal is to find something fun-but-educational for all of us to do.

I'll also take Good Friday off that week, but that's because I'll be hosting Easter and will have plenty of cleaning and cooking to do.

I need to find a good massage place – the last one I went to left me feeling, well, a little tattered. I did visit a great rhythmic one once that was just fantastic. I felt great for days afterward.

Carson, this car is quirky enough to love. It's not like my VW, whose manual was more of the "Don't even try it" variety. This one is more like "Sure, go ahead – give it a shot. We'll even help you get going." I miss that VW in handling, but I love this Saab for all its weighty, neat features. Those emails would freak me out, too!

Downtime and marketing time should be a built-in part of any schedule.

Your Saab would get along well with our "family truckster," a Chevy HHR. It sends me emails every once in awhile telling me if the tire pressure is off a little bit, if it's time for an oil change, etc. It sorta freaks me out!

I am really bad at scheduling them, and always wait way too long. I've decided to sign up for a series of them that require me to show up regularly, at least once a month. This does wonders for my stress levels, which of course impacts both business and personal life.
