  • 2017-04-23 Phoenix – Day 2, The Working Weekend Continues

    Today I woke up at around 7AM, but only had about 4.5 hours of sleep. It was not because I was up late having fun, it was all work related. I think I went to bed after midnight, but must not have fallen asleep for a while, according to my trusty FitBit. This morning I…

  • 2017-04-22 Phoenix – Day 1, Happy Earth Day

    I feel like I completely missed Earth day today due to being in Phoenix for work. Not that I would have done anything special anyway, but it would have been nice to hang out in my back yard doing stuff with my gardens. My day was very productive and I feel quite a success seeing…

  • 2017-04-22 Waking Up in Phoenix

    I went to bed after 10PM, but it was really after midnight according to my body clock, and I was wiped. Traveling does that. Amazingly I slept until 5:30AM, which is really 7:30. So that’s pretty awesome. I’ll be here for a week for a work project and I’m officially switching to west coast time…

  • 2017-04-22 Continual Contact

    After having our phone conversation a few weeks ago there were a couple of email exchanges between Matt and I and then radio silence. I’m the one who decided to break the silence this time.. with a text. I don’t know why I was compelled to do that. I just wanted the contact. Perhaps it’s…

  • 2017-04-21 Miss SugarCookie.. Live from the Air

    It’s the first time I’ve done the air travel thing since my Mexico trip in January. It doesn’t take long for me to remember how much I dislike it. It’s really just a means to an end. If I had my choice, and more time, I would drive. I don’t like the check in and…

  • 2017-04-19 Wild Wild Wednesday

    It’s been a long day. It’s been a long evening. I sort of feel like today was a success because I was able to balance everything and hit most of my goals but It’s 10:15 PM and I’m wiped, both mentally and physically. I got 20K+ steps at the gym and went to Jazzercise. I…

  • 2017-04-18 Dark and Stormy

    Either that’s the weather outside right now or what I should be drinking to dull my animosity… or both. Yesterday I left the office at 4PM tired and frustrated. I had been there since 7 trying to make progress on a project. The VPN connection is so unstable and if it is idle for more…

  • 2017-04-16 Any Given Sunday

    It’s Easter, but in my world it’s just another Sunday. Just another Sunday, except today I’m having a hard time getting out of bed because I drank too much last night and did not get enough sleep. I haven’t drank alcohol for a while now and the last time I did, it was like one…
