DuoLingo Streak: 103 Days
Thursday. I’ve been doing loads and loads of work on my SAMIT YouTube channel. I want to get a lot of work done so that it is ready for me to be away for a while during the holidays.
I’m still home alone here in Dallas, so I’ve been buckling down and working all week. The family is enjoying their time in Houston with their cousins.
DuoLingo Streak: 102 Days
Wednesday. Liesl had her Telegram on some today so we managed to talk for a bit. The kids are wondering when I will be coming down to Houston to join them. It’s looking like I will probably go down on Sunday.
More of just cold and lonely at home this week.
DuoLingo Streak: 101 Days
Tuesday. Home alone for nearly a week at this point. The house is very cold. There is only me here and I am using almost no electronics so there is practically no heat being generated in the house and it has been in the forties all week. So I have been all bundled up trying to stay warm, without running the heater at all. Why waste the electricity?
I’ve discovered that Jack and tonic water actually works pretty well. We have some Jack in the house that no one ever wants, so I have been working my way through that.
DuoLingo Streak: 100 Days
Monday. One hundred days continuous on DuoLingo Spanish! I am quite proud of that. That has been so much work. Boy can I tell that my Spanish is really improving.
It will likely be a week without news. I’m home alone more or less without human contact. Lots of work being done every day. That’s all.
DuoLingo Streak: 99 Days
Sunday. The house remains cold and quiet as we go on my fourth day of being home alone. This is when I start getting super lonely. There really isn’t anything for me to do but work. I’m in the mood to put in some time playing Skyrim today, but with the Steam laptop not hear the only video games that I have would be the ones on the Nvidia Shield and there are not very many there and those that are there are not all that gripping and I am not currently into any of them which makes them that much less interesting. So I am not very likely to do that.
It’s a bright, crisp, sunny day. I was up at eight and got right into the office. I did a good number of SAMIT videos yesterday, and wanted to get more done today while the light was not too bad.
Very little going on around the house in Dallas. With the family in Houston I’m pretty lonely and spending my time just working or watching some YouTube. I’ve found several educational YouTube shows that I really have been enjoying so have been watching those.
I’m at my limit of enjoying having time to myself already. It’s only two, maybe three days tops, before the solitude starts to wear on me. It is going to be a long week. The current plan is that I’ll be home alone for at least another week.
