I don’t think I can remember having a quieter day… It was just me and the dogs at home… Got out for a run… Then another run because I am drop the dogs leash On the first run of had to run back to get it… That behind me, I clean the house, brought in a little wood… And finish setting up my replacement laptop. No I’m not only practical thing I remember doing was checking the new gas lines on my flamethrower . Glad I checked… They were leaking!… See the soap bubbles? Those are all leaks
I got it tightened up and tested a new electronica firing system… So far so good
Checked in with gabe and Diane out at the new Portland House… Because we live in the ” schoolHouse” we’re calling The Portland house the “gradschoolhouse”. Here they are amid paint job
OK… Getting sleepy so heading to bed.
Nite all, nite Sam
Ps. I think I’m the only person I know not watching Game of Thrones… Too much violence for me… But I really and eager to hear what happens
The dogs and I had a very quiet and very peaceful day here. Amazingly peaceful… I didn’t actually have anything I needed to do. I can’t remember the last time that happened that that that well… To be truthful, there were plenty of things I could have done… I just chose not to do that 🙂
It must’ve been the beautiful weather.It got up to 72°F. Crazy hot for this time of year. I went for 3 mile run and saw so much snow even though I was sweating like crazy… I guess spring is finally here !
This evening I decided to attend the Burlington women in data science conference at generator.… My friend Jane was organizing it so I thought it would be fun to see. It turned out to be such a great event. I new so many of the people in the room… But from so many different angles. It was mostly about machine learning and the local job market… It’s a surprise and labor robust and diverse community for such a small place.
Afterwords there was beer and pizza at Queen city brewery… Just a short walk away. Really great conversations with such a great group of people.
Now home with the doggies… Trying to stay awake. Guess I can’t really stay awake… So more tomorrow
Today is a momentous day… If extended our kingdom!… Today gabe bought a house in Portland Oregon… We call it “gradschoolhouse”. In parallel with our “schoolhouse” You’re in Vermont. Gabe is buying it to live in while he’s in grad school at OHSU . It’s a cute small place on Belmont Street… Not far from where he’s living now. It’s going to be great for him
I was so proud of him and the rest of us for getting all of the stuff and order it it takes to buy house. Here he is at the signing moment
I caught myself thinking… Oh my gosh she’s so young to own a house… Then I realized that’s exactly the age I bought a house I live in today. Time is a funny thing…
Just home in Vermont after an insanely busy week down in Cambridge. I had had three meetings by 830 this morning.… The first one was the most interesting. I met with Michael the mobile notary… To start the process of closing on The new house in Portland Oregon. It’s a long story… But Gabe is buying a house in Portland to use while he’s in Grad school… The process was pretty cool… This really nice guy met me at a 6:45 this morning and we signed an inch thick stack of papers together
That was off to Mit for meeting one of my favorite professors… Little did we know that we were all into crazy socks
The rest of the day was a blur with not even 15 minutes to eat. Very interesting though. Then a nice 4 Hour Dr. home to decompress. Happy to be home.
