Day 82 – Happy Father’s Day

Today was Father’s Day. In no particular order. There was ice cream. There were cards. There was a nice long visit with my father. There were fun conversations with my daughters. There was a nice dinner with my mom and step dad. And pleasant weather. A while ago, I spoke of a second blog focused … Read more

Day 81 – Sofa

I had an early Breakfast with DaughterA since she was going to be away with friends the rest of the day and overnight. Then I ran some errands and read more of the sales/marketing book and a new book I received as a gift. It is an oral history of the TV show The Wire, … Read more

Day 80 – What do you do?

Today was mostly working. Some of which was spent getting back to my marketing/sales book and homework. That is continuing to be a lot of fun. The fun comes from growing confidence in seeing how I can talk about what I do in interesting and entertaining ways. Rather than answering “what do you do” with … Read more

Day 79 – Cooking

Can of Savoy Coconut Cream

Last night was fun. DaughterA came over and we made Thai curry together (And I keep forgetting to take pictures). She says she had not made it before so this was extra fun. We chopped up ingredients together. This one had eggplant, squash, carrots, and pork in it. Then I walked her though the cooking … Read more

Day 78 – Sleepy

I slept well but woke up still tired. DaughterA is coming over this evening to make dinner with me however I’ll go to sleep early after we visit. My artificial Christmas Tree got picked up today. I didn’t need it anymore and listed it on Craigslist’s free section. There weren’t a lot of takers but … Read more

Day 77 – Website Performance

My weight started dropping again. It had gotten stuck for about a week. I suspect because I was not quite eating enough and the amount of fat I was eating was just high enough to keep me from losing. I need to remember to eat enough to keep my metabolism going strong. And fat won’t … Read more

Day 76 – Design Process

I made a lot of progress on the website redesign I’m currently doing. Except for a couple of minor items, I’ll be waiting on my client for items they need to do and any feedback they have.  At some point I’ll probably need to gently prod them along. This project started with some very specific … Read more

Day 75 – Sunday

We moved the rest of the things out of my apartment this morning.  There was not much left.  All that is left is things for Craigslist Free (some wooden boxes/display cases) and stuff to throw away. I then spent most of the day sorting things and consolidating stuff into boxes for storage. I made pretty … Read more

Day 74 – Tired Again

Yesterday I was feeling pretty much exhausted by around 6pm. I went to bed around 6:30pm and slept pretty soundly till around 3:30am and got up at 4am. It seems like I’ve been doing a lot this week. I woke up fairly rested though still feeling tired. I spent the day with DaughterA which was … Read more

Day 73 – Books

I spent the day not thinking about moving. There are still some things to bring over but DaughterA will help with that tomorrow and then everything will be out. That left time to get back to working which felt good. I migrated one website away from GoDaddy hosting (which I can’t recommend) over to the … Read more
