Day 92 – Puff Balls

Finished troubleshooting and solving the website issue I started yesterday. This will lead to a new client and how that works will depend on what money he has to spend. I’ve intentionally avoided talking to him about money specifics yet. He doesn’t seem crazy and I’m coming in and fixing something that 2 or 3 … Read more

Day 91 – Westworld Concludes

Sons of Norway

I’m still having trouble keeping up on the blog writing from here. I’m writing this on Wednesday rather than the day of so it will be a little brief. Last night we drove 1/2 hour south of Eagan MN to a Sons of Norway social gathering listening to some Norwegian and Swedish folk music at … Read more

Day 90 – Leads

Wow, day 90. Time sure does pass. I took a really nice walk around the block in the morning around 8am. It was still pretty cool and the humidity had not come up. Though by later in the day it still wasn’t humid at all with a nice breeze so outside was lovely today. I … Read more

Day 89 – Thumbtack (not ThumbTaq)

I made crustless quiches for breakfast. There were 9 (or was it 11?) people to feed. The quiches went over well and were easy to make. It had been a while since I had made one and I forgot how good they are. 3 eggs with added cream to make 1 1/2 cups of liquid. … Read more

Day 87 – Green

It is really green here. I know I’ve mentioned it. I like it. I spent some time working today, some website work and some working on my own plans. There is a wedding reception for my girlfriend Chris’ daughter Rebecca tomorrow and while there isn’t much planning to do for it today, we did get … Read more

Day 86 – Aldi

Aldi Market

Today was mostly settling in and unpacking. We stopped by Aldi for groceries. So far, Aldi is only in the Southern part of California and I enjoy shopping at it here. Their chocolate selection is amazing and they have cheeses that remind me of England. The weather is good, everything is green. Pictures to follow. … Read more

Day 85 – Flying

Airplane Flying

Today I flew to Minnesota to visit my Girlfriend. The flight was pretty uneventful. I had been getting up early the last couple of days to adjust my sleep schedule prior to flying and it seems to have worked. Getting up at 3:45am wasn’t super painful and I didn’t fall asleep during the flight. One … Read more

Day 84 – Wrapping up

Suitcases

I fly to Minnesota tomorrow for the rest of the summer. Today was spent tying up loose ends and doing a little work. I’m all packed and my sleep schedule seems to be adjusting. I got up at 5am yesterday and 4am today and I’m feeling pretty good (even by 8pm when I’m writing this). … Read more

Day 83 – WordCamp

Today I turned in my keys for my apartment.  It was a great space and I really enjoyed living there.  The kitchen worked really well. My daughters and I spent some great times there. I’ll miss it.  But with me spending more and more time in Minnesota and not being there for the last 3 … Read more
