Please tip the writer<\/a>. Whatever amount you like-every little bit helps, and I’ll do a shoutout. We are always short of cash, especially with a big mortgage. Let me know if you or someone you know needs web design\/development-my rates aren’t bad, and I’m more than pretty good at it. Java\/database\/AWS\/UI too. ThankYouVeryMuch!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here I am again, trying to figure out what to write. Not much is coming-I have to leave for home in a few minutes, so I think I’ll pick this up after I settle down at home. Didn’t happen. I’m in bed… So not really much to say that I haven’t said before. I like to watch skiing. I want to make music and teach t’ai chi. Skiing would be nice. Dreams, dreams, dreams. Maybe some time, maybe never.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tuesday afternoon. I think that’s a song title-Moody Blues? I saw them once in Cleveland as a teenager-trying to get in the good graces of a girl I wanted. She was having none of it, so I ended up making time with another girl I wanted less. Story of my life…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now Friday night, in bed. Long week, lotsa crises at work. Had to get up super early this morning, and it didn’t help. No gamelan, no gig. Doing this on an iPad mini from work. So slick-everything is crystal clear. Now I need a path to using this for everything. W\/o Tues. & tonight-pretty decent-M & I are starting on the long Yang form. Wish us luck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Noon on Saturday, sitting at the kitchen table, drinking cafe au lait, tabletising. Kitchen is tidied, oatmeal for breakfast, shared with S. Breezy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monday afternoon, at work. Tired. Went through my storage yesterday, put my wayang puppets on the wall by my keyboard. Made a little music Sat. night until late. Church with S only. W\/o-not bad, still working on the long t’ai chi-15% through-this is gonna be a slog. We figured if we keep the pace we’re at, we’ll be done by mid-April or so. Not sure-there’s 111 moves, and we’re at #17. A lot to remember…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tuesday afternoon, at work, not tired. That’s better. Got my teeth cleaned this morning, one small cavity that needs work. 2 bigger things, but not pressing. Pretty mellow otherwise-my staffing co. wants to give me more $$$-woo-hoo!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weds. AM, I have to return my old work laptop that I have at home so I don ‘t have to lug my new one back and forth from home every day-rrrrr. If I could get the iPad mini on the VPN I might be able to not do that-all I need is access to the app, monitor, log miner and raw logs…oh whell. Good w\/o last night-negatives, and I’m feeling it today. I was talking to M about our progress and how it’s nice to have someone to workout with-motivation and all that, and I’ve done this before, and I’m coaching him. I’m actually not making a lot of progress lifting-wise-a few exercises have increased 10-30 pounds. The big difference is cardio-I was never focused on cardio-skate to\/from or treadmill-I never ran or did any higher intensity cardio work, and I was a gym-goer for a good 16 years-’78 through ’96 (London was a wash). Also, doing the long Yang form will make a big change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thurs. PM, watching ski jumping & tennis. Saw the trailer for the new John Wick movie. Busy at work. Gamelan last night-a bit rusty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sat night. Pretty quiet-slept late, made overnight oatmeal in my new to me small crockpot-so yum yum. Tidy, laundry, watched skiing, shop, dinner. W\/o last night-pretty usual-I think my cardio shape is coming back. Up to #25 in t’ai chi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monday-I think I’ll call this. Sun.-rice for breakfast, church, some guy wanting food, binz, shop, w\/o-worked hard, up to #27. Didn’t vacuum, but most everything else is fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Links. brighter side: silly cats<\/a>, guilty dogs<\/a>. Not so bright: everything else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
