I guess I’ll start: I put an offer in on a house this weekend. I did not get the house. But, I’m okay with that. I aalso meal prepped for the first time last night. I felt very productive. And, the week just started; so that’s very hopeful for me. :)
Meal Prep is something I have got to get Into. I’m diabetic, and I’ve got two small kids so more often than not I just eat whatever I can find. Little work on a Sunday might go a long way.
My backpack has been packed:
- Two laptops (one for work, one for not) + accessories
- A change of clothes
- A DE9-RJ45 console cable
- Power bank
- A bunch of access keycards
The composite-toe airport-friendly safety shoes are by the door waitingforme. I’m abnormally early in getting ready this time, because my backpack was mostly packed from my previous work trip. So now I’m sitting in my bed for the next hour, before it’s time to hop in ky car and drive to the airport.
For the next couple of days I’ll be on a short work trip, the kind I usually do once or twice a month, and thebkids and my GF know that I’ll be back on Wednesday.
I’ll be in transit most of the day, but there’s a rental car and a hotel waiting for me on the other side. Tomorrow will mostly be spent working inside shipping containers, with my laptop plugged into various network hardware and servers that will soon be lifted onboard a ship.
Back to work this week after taking a week off. I had been feeling poorly on 1/18, we thought it was a bad reaction to a new prescription and my doctors directed me to the ER, where I had a heart attack. :(
4 days and 2 hospitals later I was stented and released.
Good to hear you made it past the heart attack in what sounds like one piece. Definitely take it as easy as you can. What’s the road to recovery look like for you?
Found out my edodontist missed something on my recent root canal and I need to go back for some re-work, at no charge fortunately. But then I need to move around all my dentist appointments that were dependent on the root canal being completed first.
Thank you for asking! My partner and I had our first weekend sober!
- Friday, we took a buddy out to dinner for their birthday and got to leave early because nobody questioned why the people who don’t drink wouldn’t want to go bar hopping.
- Saturday, we went shopping since I’ve changed sizes recently, and I desperately needed clothes besides stretchy athletic wear; we wrapped the night up with an appearance at a birthday, went to dinner, and were asleep before midnight.
- Sunday, we took it easy, played Baldur’s Gate 3 during the day, had our weekly D&D session during the night, and got to sleep by midnight.
It felt so comfortable. Good weekend. 👍
