Day 331 – Thursday

I went back to the gym in the morning and walked on the elliptical for 35 minutes. I was able to figure out the lockers this time and had a good time there. It’s nice to have dedicated time to listen to podcasts as well. Then working on various work things. It was a productive … Read more

Day 330 – Wednesday

It snowed today. I’m in Minnesota in winter, it’s supposed to snow a lot. And yet TV weather people made this out to be a big deal. People were buying extra groceries in the store yesterday. Schools were closing. Snow. Looking at how much we all (except my girlfriend Chris) variously shoveled off of the … Read more

Day 329 – Tuesday

I tried to go to the gym this morning. It was a very nice day and I got bundled up for the drive over (it was low 20s I think). After I left I realized I forgot my gym bag. I didn’t want to take the extra time of driving back, unbundling, getting my bag, … Read more

Day 328 – Monday

I went over to the gym in the morning and walked on the elliptical for 30 minutes. I figured I would start out slow for a few days to get used to everything. The gym is very nice and fancy. Though I needed help getting my locker opened when I was done. There is a … Read more

Day 327 – Sunday

Today my girlfriend Chris and I ran some errands after breakfast. We went to the gym where she is a member so she could add me to her membership. She is more than independent enough at home and I want to start being able to exercise regularly. It has been a few months and there … Read more

Day 326 – Saturday

My girlfriend Chris and I got up early and drove to visit her parents. They live outside of Brainerd, MN about 2 1/2 hours North East-ish from the Twin Cities. The plan was to get there by breakfast and we left by around 6:30am and didn’t have much traffic and the roads were dry. We … Read more

Day 325 – Friday

My girlfriend Chris found she was more sore today from all of the activity yesterday and so is taking Tylenol again. I’m encouraging her to make sure she stays comfortable and that makes sense to her. I remember days where I didn’t need any sort of pain relief after my surgery and then I would. … Read more

Day 324 – Happy Valentines Day

I’m impressed by what my girlfriend Chris is able to do more and more each day. It seems like a small thing but there was the medical lab visit and then two stores and still no Tylenol since yesterday. This compared to her not wanting to go into one grocery store for a very brief … Read more

Day 323 – Wednesday

I had another meeting with someone from networking and my girlfriend Chris met with a friend of hers for breakfast. Given morning traffic we had a long-ish drive to the breakfast place in St Paul and then I had a shorter drive to downtown Minneapolis for my meeting. My meeting was good. This was with … Read more

Day 322 – Tuesday

I had a morning meeting with someone I met here networking over the summer. It was good to catch up and learn more about what he is doing. I wasn’t there to pitch him necessarily but there may be an opportunity for that in future. We’ll stay in touch. My girlfriend Chris resumed her tutoring … Read more
