I I’m very hopeful that this is a wake up call for everyone. I’m watching the ratification of the electoral college votes… And I hope I am seeing Are coming together around this craziness… Time will tell
Believe it or not… I’m more optimistic than I’ve been in months
How much to report today… Watching the Georgia election… Don’t want to watch but can’t turn away
One interesting thing I tried today was a Christmas present from GabÉ… It’s called a “mint thing”… It’s a strange mint flavored cold brew coffee with oat milk thing…
I went back to work today… And about mid day I realized that I was starting my 40th year at IBM… My actual work anniversaries in until August but still that’s an incredible number. And I still kind of like it… Which is even more amazing
Today I also started setting up the picture scanner we got over the holiday to start digitizing all of the snapshots we have from when the kids were little… It’s a huge job we have stacks and stacks and stacks of pictures… So we bought a very fast for the scanner. Just in the first pack I found all these wonderful pictures… Just sharing a couple of them here because they make me smile . These are all from 1995 in December
We spent the last day of our holiday planning for the coming year.… So far so good.… We did get outside for a couple of hours and did a hike up from the Sugar Shak on Bolton access road and then bushwhacked up to the Long Trail… It was a beautiful steep climb… through several inches of snow Relied completely on GPS. So fun. Surprisingly we saw two other peoples tracks Up there in the middle of nowhere
Back to work tomorrow…
I feel ready
Nite all, nite sam
