It sounds like pre-school, but It’s easy to recognize the difference in a day filled with positive thinking versus a day where I dwell on the negative. Positive thinking promotes positive feeling, which makes getting the best out of life (and work) so much easier.
Jenn and I took Moose to the new Nampa dog park again. He did much better than our first visit. He actually wanted to engage with people and dogs. It was funny to watch because a few times he started running towards a dog and then suddenly realized what he was doing and would abruptly turn around and run back towards us.
Before the dog park we had dinner together and after the dog park we watched a movie called Homestead. It was a little overdone in parts, but it was thought provoking. It was about a group of people and what they do when the government effectively disappears.
Sienna went to McCall for the day to go steelhead fishing. She said it was fun. Kelsee caught one. From the picture it looks like a 3ft long giant. I think fish pictures are always suspect. 🙂

It was kind of an off day for business. My mind has been stuck on a negative experience and it’s taken the wind out of my sails a little bit, so motivation was lacking.
I attended our weekly business meeting, and I finished some paperwork that needed finishing.
I had an interesting experience a few days ago that’s worth writing about.
A man called me with a very difficult accent. After several questions and restating of almost everything he said, I finally understood that he wanted to sell a piece of land he has in Boise. The catch was he was too busy with work to meet in person, and he hoped to do all the necessary work to get it listed remotely, with e-signatures. After telling him three or four times that we would need to meet in person, he hung up on me.
It’s a common scam now days for people to sell bare land that doesn’t belong to them. It’s hard to understand how this type of thing gets all the way through to closing, but I’ve read enough articles about houses being built on lots when the true owner of the lot is completely unaware. Be vigilant.
