Day 62 – Vic’s Ice Cream

I slept in a bit. I enjoy holiday Mondays. (It’s Memorial Day today). I enjoy that no one is looking for me, I can do what I want in the morning without regard to schedule. I enjoy that. My Girlfriend gave me good advice about my first “new style” blog post for my business blog … Read more

Day 61 – Email

We (Mom, StepDad, and I) went over to my apartment to haul stuff to goodwill. This was two small stacks of books and a large quantity of clothes. As I was going through things, there were a lot of clothes from decades ago that are still in good shape though I can’t really fit into … Read more

Day 60 – Crispy Pork Shank

Back on Day 42 I talked about the end of a suture that had erupted from the skin of my chest incision. It has been there since. I would feel it off and on. It wasn’t coming out.  (Yanking on it with tweezers didn’t help.  You aren’t supposed to do that, though.)  I thought that … Read more

Day 59 – Friday

Sort of a weird day for reasons that aren’t suitable for this blog so the reasons will remain a mystery. Looking over my business website yesterday I realized that, thinking short term, I had all of the ways of contacting me to be for someone to sign up for a free consulting call. What I … Read more

Day 58 – Thursday

Day 57 – Wednesday

I spent time this morning on the phone talking to some students in my Girlfriends advanced coding class.  They were more advanced of the advanced students and had some questions about projects they were working on.  It has been a lot of fun helping that class.  I completed all I am going to write this … Read more

Day 56 – Twitter

Twitter logo

8 weeks done. Several months ago I started looking for customers for my web site support/design business.  There are a number of paths I’m following on that and one of them is twitter. Twitter lets people send short messages, tweets, to each other and to the world at large.  You can address these messages to … Read more

Day 55 – Monday

Westworld Logo

I’m watching season 2 of Westworld (HBO, Sunday nights) and I’m enjoying it. But I enjoyed season 1 much more. Season 2 is fine but it feels like it is just plot. Stuff is happening. People are doing things. Going from place to place. Shooting stuff. (Though last night was more chopping stuff than shooting … Read more

Day 54 – Thai Basil

Thai Basil Plant

Today was a pretty quiet day. I went to the downtown Sacramento farmers market and while there is more variety, the selection is still pretty limited vs previous years. I picked up some Thai basil which was the main reason I went there. Other than that I did some website work. I’m setting up an … Read more
