Sunday night – diligence

Diane and Gabe were both gone today… Which gave me a whole day to Myself. I always look forward to this kind of alone time… But then find myself missing my family as soon as they are gone. I did make really good use of the time today . I made myself a list of a bunch of chores around the house. And one by one I clicked them off. Pool, check, Laundry – check, clean house – check. It was actually fun doing more or less mindless work. My mind was clear and Empty The entire day.

One thing I worked on was my upcoming TedX talk that I am going to give in the Netherlands in a couple of weeks. It will be called do try this at home and it Will be made experiments that you can do it home. To that end, I am somewhat desperately looking for the coolest science demos that you can do using material from a grocery store, drugstore, or hardware store. Any ideas ?

 

Surprisingly,that was not the nerdiest thing I did all day. I went and worked with my friend John to try to finish up a long overdue project. We made great progress. Then I went to the annual potluck dinner of the lab-B maker space. I just love these guys. They been had it for longer than any other maker organization in the area. And while many of us sit and talk, these guys do . Today they actually were wearing their custom lab coats monogrammed with their names. How cool is that?

 

It's going to be interesting to see where all of this maker stuff leads us. With new maker spaces and maker groups and maker events it makes me wonder how long we can keep growing. Right now it's amazing.

Time for bed

 

Nite all, nite sam
