Since we got to bed by about 10:30, we were up by 8:30. I made mushroom, onion, and cheese scrambled eggs, which we had with some toast and coffee. It was pretty yummy if I may say so myself. I worked on my Tour de Friends web page, converting my Training Journal from Word to … Read more
I arrived at the rec center just before 8:30, and was surprised at how “un-crowded” it was. That, however, made “check-in” quick and easy. I found a seat next to Richard Z., in the second row on the right side. I wanted to sit close enough to the front that I could get decent pictures … Read more
Work was pretty uneventful today until I returned from the printer at around 3 or 3:30, and saw my voice mail light blinking. I called it, and it was a message from The Lifeworks Program saying that one of their clients wanted me to call them. My first thought was that this was some sort … Read more
I worked from home today as my car was in the shop being repaired from the “Artsplosure incident.” I got an e-mail from Bert, whose humor I love, today that said something to this effect, “On the radio this morning, on the way in, the announcer said, ‘Those late afternoon and early evening thunderstorms could … Read more
We had our TIGR meeting today, which was basically a roundtable again. I brought up concerns about the TPDM Process Change Control Process. (Yes, dont’ laugh, it’s a process for a process.) 🙂 Book club lunch was fun; it was only me, Mary, and Suzanne. Mary talked about spending some time with Tara (3 months), … Read more
Candie called me at about forty-five minutes before the meeting to let me know Alan was calling a meeting at the same time of all of his managers. Since at least one of them has to be at my meeting to authorize action item closings, we basically canceled the meeting. I did dial in just … Read more
I worked on my web page all day today. At about 7:00, I cut and pasted something in a file, and accidentally wiped out 90% of the file. I saved the file before I realized it. I lost about two hours work. I did some serious “Landmark,” “Covey,” and “The Reality of Change” mental work … Read more
I worked on revamping my web page all day. I met Steve and Joe for dinner at Red Dragon at 7:00. It was good to catch up, but I sensed a little tension between Joe and Steve. I went straight to Flex from there, and got there at about 8:15. The place was dead. We … Read more
I attended the Fran and Michelle’s Developing Quality Technical Information class from 9-11. I knew the answers to several questions, because I had read the 99 pages we were supposed to read before attending. Fran thanked me after the meeting for having read and for my participation. Mel made a comment about my participation, too. … Read more
I slept in this morning, hoping the extra rest wards off this cold. I left the house at 11:15, and stopped by the TCW post office box. Good thing. There were several items that need to get to David quickly. I attended the “Foundational Competencies Series – Seminar – A Personal Guide to Managing Change.” … Read more
