As some of you may now, this blog has been written with a built in two week time lag.  That was the only way I figured I could make a daily written and published journal like this work. So, I’ll share with you that I’m writing this post 10 days in the future from now.  … Read more

I was pleased to see how many states in the US celebrate Indigenous People’s day vs Columbus day. I also chose this day to stop looking at the news or social media.  I had found some pretty entertaining Twitter accounts to follow, I regularly checked the weighted average polling on fivethirtyeight.com, there were some amusingly … Read more

Today I needed to get the sales web page done for the paid workshop I’m doing in a few weeks.  One of my clients is having a meeting with a bunch of people today and he can promote it to them. Most of the web page was done but there was some writing to do … Read more

Chris and I drove up to visit Chris’ parents.  Her mom made beef stroganoff which was good and we helped with some cleaning in the basement.  Chris dusted and vacuumed and I got cobwebs out of corners and out of exposed ceiling joists.  It was a good visit.

I started planning out the paid service / workshop I’m going to build.  This is for the puppeteer I spoke with yesterday and I still think there are others who can use it. We had cobb salad for dinner and it was really good.  We forget how tasty it is so I should make it … Read more

I finished up the website work for Trish and we had a good call getting the final technical pieces integrated.  We did a live money test to make sure collecting money from the web page works (that’s always an important test).  Everything looks good so Trish can start promoting it.  I have some additional email … Read more

Furniture delivery went well.  The new chairs are comfy and give a nice place to sit in the basement living room.  Now we just need a way to safely entertain but we are ready.  It will be fun to have a dartboard at some point, too. I’ve been continuing to work on the web pages … Read more
