Whatever amount you like-every little bit helps, and I&#8217;ll do a shoutout. We are always short of cash, especially with a big mortgage.

Our little local life is largely unchanged. Not much to say other than that-the usual recounting of an exciting life, I guess. This will be fun to re-read when I&#8217;m old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Friday afternoon, a few more things to do, and that&#8217;s it. Fridays are nice, wearing a floral shirt, sneakers, jeans, not a lot of people here. Got my task list for the weekend done as well-I like this process. Not getting a ton done, but at least I&#8217;m noting stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday morning, on a call, but not involved. Pretty mellow weekend-cleaned, but not a lot else. Good workouts, but still laying off arms. E went to <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"\ufffcIkea (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ikea.com\/us\/en\/stores\/portland\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ikea<\/a>, C drove. He also drove Sunday to a show in North-Kenton, right next to the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Masonic hall (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kentonfreemasons.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Masonic hall<\/a> we played <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"a gig (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=v7kv_pwTtUk\" target=\"_blank\">a gig<\/a> at 2 years ago. Waited around, thought about a thing, didn&#8217;t, he got a ride home. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Church  (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kairosucc.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Church <\/a>Sun., that&#8217;s about it. Had a nice lunch today at the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Bistro Petit Oiseau (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/littlebirdbistro.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Bistro Petit Oiseau<\/a> with my recruiter (and it&#8217;s closing!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tuesday, almost time to go home.Another busy day-got a thing untangled. Get this all checked in and tested in dev. Not much else-quiet last night, w\/o tonight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Weds, forgot my lunch, so <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Whole Bowl (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thewholebowl.com\/portland.html\" target=\"_blank\">Whole Bowl<\/a>. Gonna meet M somewhere. Good w\/o-ran, and I don&#8217;t feel creaky today! Good balance on <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/103-form_Yang_family_tai_chi_chuan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"t'ai chi (opens in a new tab)\">t&#8217;ai chi<\/a> too, but still lifting on legs only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thursday afternoon, watching a guy set up my stuff. We swamped the email server with a production run that generated an email for each row insert failure, and there were 30,000&#8230;ack. At least it was just our team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Friday, after lunch. Looks like my entry got vanished. Got a thing figured out, finishing up stuff. Wrote down the plan page. I think I&#8217;ll snag a comp book for artist&#8217;s way stuff-we&#8217;ll see if I can do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday afternoon, almost time to go. I&#8217;m tired-got to bed at 12:30. E is sick. Other than that, pretty quiet weekend-w\/o both Fri. and Sun., M didn&#8217;t on Fri.-gaming club. Tidied Sat., no church, C sold his amp &amp; we drove there-he&#8217;s a pretty decent driver now. Shopping-made Chinese last night from frozen. Loaded up my phone with music-just pulled all the familiar stuff-no &#8220;one tune from each album&#8221;-takes up a quarter the size. Need to do stuff this week, rather than jelly. We&#8217;ll see-I have laundry to do tonight, if I don&#8217;t turn on the TV I might be able to get in some time. I think that&#8217;s the key&#8230;no TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday morning, not as tired as I was earlier-thanks, caffeine! It&#8217;s been a week since I wrote this. Much the same, C has his license and we have to pay $189 more for insurance, AND his gf&#8217;s car has a check engine light&#8230; This weekend, I practiced a bit, got E&#8217;s laundry done and tidied up her stuff on my side of the room, then covered it with a sheet. Also did some laptop setup for WordPress, node and Che-I think I overloaded it. Good w\/o&#8217;s. House is clean. I think I&#8217;ll call this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Links\/viddys-brighter side: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/twitter.com\/ANDREW1ALBERTT\/status\/1182424380753756160?s=20\n<\/div><figcaption>New doggie friends.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/twitter.com\/zonephysics\/status\/1182665101419126787?s=21\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not so bright: don&#8217;t even want to go there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Page 23, sentence 5: &#8220;Images fill the well.&#8221;, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0874778212\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"The Artist's Way (opens in a new tab)\">The Artist&#8217;s Way<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mid-October, not much going on-S is excited for Halloween, and politics rolls on.
