No Momentum

December has been a slow month. Every few days, we have gotten rain, plus the days have mostly been overcast, so the car washes have not gotten momentum.

Looking Forward to the Grind

Today is my first day back to work after a nice vacation. I am looking forward to getting back to the daily grind. I am going to leave work at 4:50 p.m. tonight, ten minutes earlier than normal.
