Day 711 – Saturday

Chris and I drove north to visit her parents. We wanted to bring up the hot wax warmer that Chris had been using some on her hand so her father could try it out He has bad arthritis in one hand and was finally willing to try it out. It seems like it helped him … Read more

Day 710 – Friday

Early in the morning, around 5am, I was up and saw a small herd of deer out the window.  A couple days ago there were 4 lounging in the grass between Chris’ house and a neighbor.  Today on the other side, there were 7 that were sitting and nosing in the ground trying to find … Read more

Day 709 – Thursday

There was some nice light snow falling down part of today. The air temperature is above freezing so nothing is sticking but it’s pretty.  And overall the snow is melting off at a pretty fast clip.  By Monday it may be mostly all gone. Had a call with someone who attended last week’s presentation. I’m … Read more

Day 708 – Wednesday

I had a second night of sleeping all night without getting up in the middle of the night. This is unusual but positive. My dry cough seems a little bit more today but overall I still feel better. I had an in-person meeting in the morning. She was a referral from someone else I’ve been … Read more

Day 707 – Tuesday

Today I felt significantly better. Cough was a lot better. I had energy through the day. I’m not running around, still basically resting and my work is basically rest. Progress is slow.

Day 706 – Monday

I’m feeling a lot better but it’s still a slow recovery. By evening, both Chris and I were worried that my cough was still lingering and I’ll go get it checked out by Wednesday if it isn’t better before then. While it’s unlikely, I’m hoping I already caught a mild case of the plague on … Read more

Day 705 – Sunday

We all had breakfast at a local cafe / diner and drove back. Hinckley is a pretty small town. I understand it survived so far by being the midpoint between the Twin Cities and Duluth so travelers would stop there. Not that the overall distance is that far. 2 hours or so. MN is much … Read more

Day 704 – Saturday

Yesterday I got notice that my pig was ready so in the morning we drove south to Greg’s meats to pick it up. We had ordered a 1/2 hog. It is about 110 lbs of meat. Mostly pork chops (I’ll figure out how to order for more roasts next time) but also 13 lbs of … Read more

Day 703 – Friday

I was back to more tired today. Still coughing some. Gradually better but this is a slow recovery. I had a call with a guy from Sacramento who wanted help finding prospects on LinkedIn. I’m going to give him a free trial because he qualifies as a friend but this may be the last new … Read more

Day 702 – Thursday

Just in time, I felt significantly better today. This was good timing as I realized that in addition to finishing preparation for the presentation tonight, I also needed to build the website that will sell the paid offer linked to the presentation. So setting up a couple of web pages. Writing the sales copy to … Read more
