Sunday, January 19th, 2020A good Sunday. (19th) Got up early (for a Sunday) to exercise and shower before Jill’s sister got here. She met us at our house to go to Pokémon Go community day with us. We all had a good time at community day. The game was being not as friendly at passing out high IV […]
iMac, Pokemon, Movies
Thursday, December 26th, 2019A good Thursday. (26th) Slept in a bit. Upgraded our 2009 iMac to SSD. I bought a kit from OWC (MacSales), with suction cups for removing the glass and a 500G SSD. It also came with a thermal sensor cable to replace the one that’s built into the original HDD, which, by the way failed […]
Movies, iPhone, Computer
Monday, November 18th, 2019A good Monday. (18th) Kicked around the house mostly. Watched a couple of movies with Jill. Went to help my older son get his new phone set up. He moved from an iPhone 5s to an iPhone 7 Plus. Helped our friend tweak some more settings on his streaming PC. Went to bed way too […]
Funday
Sunday, October 20th, 2019A good Sunday. (20th) Slept in. So nice. Ate breakfast, then the family and I left the house to play Pokémon Go with some friends. We had EX Raid Passes to a raid, so we did it, and then did a few more. Once we were done with that it was lunchtime. We went to […]
PT, Work, Updates
Wednesday, October 2nd, 2019A good Wednesday. (2nd) Today was my first day of physical therapy. They had me start super slowly. I need to build muscles up in my glutes to allow my hips to do more of the work holding me up, rather than putting all that extra strain on my back. Focussing on the glutes is […]
Re-arranged the Game Room
Sunday, September 29th, 2019A good Sunday. (29th) Re-arranged a bunch of stuff in the Game Room today. Moved a couple of consoles that use only wired controllers to the TV stand that’s under our wall hanging TV, so they are closer to the center of the room. That also gave me space on the electronics tower to bring […]
Health, Chama Gaucha, Games
Wednesday, September 25th, 2019A great Wednesday! (25th) Had my six-week follow up with my surgeon. They did X-ray my back and my surgeon said I’m clear to return to life, mostly. No swimming until the back skin is fully healed, but for mostly everything else I’m clear! Things I’ve been prohibited from doing over the last six weeks: […]
Work, TV, New iPhone
Friday, September 20th, 2019A good Friday. (20th) Regular workday for me, except that I’m supposed to work on my secondary project this one day per week, and I didn’t really get to, due to minor emergencies with two of my primary products. Nothing customer impacting, but then again, that’s what I’m here for. Watched a few episodes of […]
Core Values, TV, iOS 13
Thursday, September 19th, 2019Just realized I forgot to post yesterday’s update. Sorry! A good Thursday. (19th) Regular work day. Rackspace announced their new Core Values today. They are a distillation and simplification of the previous set of Core Values. I think it’s a good step forward. Today, I learned that the Sony PS4 doesn’t support 5GHz wireless. That’s […]
9/11, Frost Bank Time, Work
Wednesday, September 11th, 2019A good Wednesday. (11th, never forget, where were you?) Had a conversation about old stuff. Old stuff including making phone calls for directory assistance, movie times, etc. Then we remembered Frost Bank Time. Turns out, it’s still going. Seriously. 80 years and still going strong. ( https://www.expressnews.com/entertainment/arts-culture/article/Frost-Bank-time-keeps-on-ticking-after-14073926.php ) (210) 226-3232. So, of course, we had to call it. We […]
