January 19, 2018: Fake Jobs

Friday.  Busy day online, I was in the office writing all day.

Our January is really very heads down and focused on just day to day work.  I feel like much of the month has really just been lost, much to stress as we found out this week, for certain, that the job in Phoenix / Qatar was a total scam and was never going to be a real job.  Not a total surprise, but now it is official and we know that the whole thing was a farce.  So dealing with that has been a bit ridiculous.

January 17, 2018: Snow on the Ground, Pipes Still Working

Wednesday.  This morning we still had snow on the ground from yesterday.  And our pipes are still working.  So far we’ve made it this entire season without our pipes freezing.

This evening Dominica and I finished watching the second season of Grace & Favour.  Then we started watching one of my old favourites, A Good Man in Africa.  I originally owned that one on Laserdisc and it is in my collection somewhere in storage.  We did not finish it.  Dominica is not into it.  I like it, though.  It’s a good story and good actors.

January 16, 2018: Coldest Day of the Year

Tuesday.  Very cold here in Texas today, just nineteen degrees!  Surprisingly our pipes have not yet frozen and the local schools are actually still open.

Had to go out for a late afternoon meeting and then was home at six and did dinner with the family.

It’s supposed to drop to just thirteen degrees here tonight!

Tonight we finished watching the latest season of Fuller House with the kids.
