2023 Project 52 – 22/52

Short week of work because Monday was Memorial Day and Friday was a day off for me. We had a relaxing Memorial Day spent going for a nice walk through town and I played Xbox. We saw a regiment of…

We packed a LOT into this week. We closed on the old house, so we’re back to just one mortgage now. With help from my parents, we were able to purchase the new house first and then sell the old…
Hightlights of the week:
Quite the week. We closed on the new house. The son premiered his documentary. Movers moved most of the house this weekend. The son left to drive to the West Coast. My dad (who lives in SC) stopped by to…
So much packed into one week. A quick rundown of what happened: A quick rundown of what didn’t happen:
Short week of work because I took time off for Thanksgiving. We all drove down to North Carolina to visit my dad, aunts, and uncles. It was a reeeeal long drive on Wednesday, but worth it to see everybody on…
James Bond edition! Get it … because 007? It’s not really a post dedicated to James Bond. I mean, I like the films, but I don’t think I know or follow the series enough to have a whole post dedicated…
Busy week of work. We’re re-focusing on some of the basics and trying to get everybody on board with some of the changes happening around the office. I love the direction we’re going and I see our team being very…
This week was simultaneously long and went by quickly. I guess it *felt* long during the week, but when looking back it went by quickly. Lots of business at work and home. At home we have a couple projects in…
Not a whole lot happened this week. Work, homework, and lots of coughing (allergies or COVID remnants or a combo). My boss came out to our area this week, so we had a team lunch and a good strategy meeting…
A short week back at work was helpful; providing a soft landing after vacation. Next week will be my first full week in three weeks though … so wish me luck. I stopped at World Market this week while waiting…
I saw a post in a Facebook group for my High School alumni which showed this map of German beers from each state. This led me down the rabbit hole of investigating the German states a little more, since I…
The hits keep rolling in. We found out my cousin was killed in a car accident. It had been a few years since I’d seen him, but I am very close to his parents (my aunt and uncle). My heart…
Hey! Welcome back. I know it’s been a while. I’ve been pretty busy. How about you? The wife and I took a train up to New York on Nov 20th to celebrate our 25th anniversary. Lots of walking, shopping, eating,…
First and foremost, thank you to all who have served in our armed forces for your service. Thank you to the families who support them and the sacrifices they’ve made as well. My father was a POW in Vietnam. His…
It’s been quite a week, which is why I’m posting this later in the week than I want. Anyway, the wife, the son, and I went apple picking this past weekend (the daughter was out of town or she would…
We had a rough week. My mother-in-law passed away. I just haven’t felt like doing anything. It’s been mostly a maintenance week … just keeping up the stuff that needed to be done. My wife is handling it really well.…
Writing down the things that come to my head while trying to stay safe during COVID-19 lockdown. I started a diary post for week 27 but never got around to finishing and publishing it; so some of those thoughts are…
Putting my random, rabid thoughts down on “paper” for the world to see while we all have this shared pandemic experience. One of my pet peeves is pickup trucks that back into the parking spot and hang over half the…
Writing down things I think about while trying to socially isolate during this freaking pandemic. So yeah, this pandemic is still happening. Still. I honestly don’t know if the mask thing is still a “debate” or not. I’ve severely limited…
Blurbs from my mind while coping with novel coronavirus and written down in one spot. I saw a post that really resonated with me on Facebook from a friend of mine from High School. His original post was a meme/graphic…
Pulling stuff out of my head while and trying to keep things as “normal” as possible in the year 2020. I’m still on the fence about whether 2020 is actually an insane year, or it just seems like an insane…
Thinking thoughts and posting whatever comes to mind during my self-isolation. We’re in this together (well, those of us actually doing this). I missed a week. Sue me. My contract ended last week, so it was several weeks of “hair…
