Monday.  Just writing and dealing with new job stuff today.  It was busy enough that I didn’t write down any notes about today!

Sunday.  Just a quiet day with the family.

This evening, Luciana and I went out for a nice walk together.  We had a great time.  Our walks give us one on one time to just talk which we rarely get when we are at the house because there is always just so much going on.

It is the weekend,  and good thing.  After this week, I slept for ten hours before waking up this morning!

Dominica and I did lunch together today.

Rachel released her second book onto Amazon today. The RAD Diaries is now available.

Friday.  I am back in Dallas and today I am busy getting to be a local bench tech running around to a local site up in McKinney, Texas.  A full day of desktop support tasks for me.  It was a busy day, but it is Friday and this was certainly a change of pace for me.  I like this from time to time.

After work, this evening we had a movie night.  Luciana started with us but decided that she was not into the movie and went to do her own thing.  So Dominica, Liesl, and I watched the first movie of the new Harry Potter series: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

The movie was good, not nearly as good as the original eight Harry Potter movies and some of the casting choices seemed to be rather odd.  But overall it was a really good movie and we are looking forward to seeing more in this series.

It was a very quick trip out to Phoenix, just one night here in my new executive condo in Chandler.  It’s all very interesting.  One thing that I learned, because I never looked at this before, is that Phoenix is actually farther north than Dallas is!  Dallas is only barely north of the Mexico California border.

So today was up and into the office, eventually, getting Taco Bell on the way in.  I introduced everyone in the office to the joys of Taco Bell breakfast.

The view from the new condo is amazing.  I have to say, I might really detect Arizona on a social level, but they do some beautiful work around the city.

But all views are of just plain, beige, desert and it will get old quickly if you are not in a spot that is green from the water being pumped in.

Spent the day in the office trying to teach people how to use logic in decision making.  That was frustrating.  And trying to get people who are very defensive about their jobs to think about how to actually get the job done, rather than how to milk the company for as long as they can before they get discovered.

Off to the airport this afternoon, a quick hop, and I am back in Dallas with my family tonight!
