  • 2018-05-31 Working Out and Working It

    It’s going to be a quick set today. Get the HR up and sweat a little, just enough to wet a girl’s appetite for more, and then cut and run. I was up at 6AM watching the grass grow on dashboards I developed in AWS Cloudwatch. An upgrade to the software I support went in…

  • 2018-05-30 Two More Days

    To get things checked off my to-do list. It’s deciding what’s important and what is not. I feel like I haven’t accomplished much, but to be fair isn’t loving life enough??!! Today I picked up my car from the tire place where I had new tires put on yesterday. That was on my to-do list…

  • 2018-05-29 Transition Tuesday

    Back home after the holiday now and time to dive back into the other lifestyle. I haven’t been to the gym in about a week and I basically unplugged from work for over a day. A whole day.. wow. That’s so necessary. Even though I’m not working hours like I used to I am still…

  • 2018-05-27 Sweet Sunday Status

    Let’s see now.. what do things look like this week. 👀 Sleep.. 6 hours and 44 minutes average per night. Not quite at goal, but that’s prolly cuz there’s too much awesome going on right now. I don’t want to miss a minute of the action. I’ll sleep later! 😜 Exercise.. 12771 Average steps a…

  • 2018-05-25 Glossed Right By That One

    It’s been a few days again. Everything is wonderful of course and it’s nice for that to be the reason for my absence from the blogging scene instead of the alternative which world be something terrible I’m sure. This blog has become such an essential part of my life and routine, I think about it…

  • 2018-05-22 Gardening and Things

    It’s the ole switcharoo this morning cuz I had to work first thing and just now getting to the elliptical. I’m at JS’s house and he has a treadmill and elliptical machine. Let me tell ya, not all machines are created equal. This thing is an ass-kicker! I’ve just got a ton of work this…

  • 2018-05-21 Monday Again ☮️💟☯️

    Whoa.. the gym is teeming with teenagers this morning. It’s finals week at the HS and this is where they go for their PE final. Luckily, when I walked in my machine was still open. Then I had not one but two dudes come over and talk to me. One was a guy I graduated…

  • 2018-05-20 The “Other” Sunday Status

    This time I’m not looking at the last week or even the last month. I’m glancing back over my left shoulder at one year ago. One year ago today I asked my boss for a sabbatical. The day after that I broke into tears over my failed relationship because I happened to see Orion’s Belt…

  • 2018-05-20 Long Lost Sunday Status Update

    Let’s see.. its been a few weeks since I did a proper Sunday Status. It’s kind of a broken record thing anyway but here goes… Exercise: Average 17k steps for the week. I’m hovering right around 14.5 k for the past month and 15k for the past 3 months and 16k so far this year.…

  • 2018-05-19 Eleven Week Meetup

    It’s a rainy Saturday afternoon. I’m at the gym trying to work of a big lunch. JS an I were talking last night about the foods we used to eat when we were young and in HS and college and it reminded me of my very favorite thing ever (or was a hundred years ago).…

  • 2018-05-18 My Dreams are Stirring Up Some Shit

    This morning I woke up at the tail end of a bad dream that was most certainly my brain trying to puzzle out something it’s grappled with a time or two in the past and potentially still struggling with. I have an inner desire to please People and do a good job and I think…

  • 2018-05-17 Grumpy Old Men

    There’s just something about life that makes grumpy old men. They may once have been happy and hopeful and full of optimism but life wears on a person like water crashing on a beach. It’s a combination of myltiple factors I think. The first is just, you know, that hope being squeezed out by a…
