Monday. Had a very busy morning today. Two hours or more of craziness just trying to keep up. Then at ten I got busy doing onboarding for a new team member. That kept by day very busy. Our plan had been to do onboarding today because it is a US holiday so we were expecting that our US clients were going to be really slow so our LATAM staff would have lots of time to do onboarding. But that did not work, and instead we were slammed all day and going crazy trying to help out the new girl while doing everything else. We have our first worker who does not speak English so that makes things extra challenging for training.
November 11, 2018: DS Games Come Out
Sunday. Had to get up and moving early this morning. Two production outages to deal with first thing this morning.
This morning the girls were in a nostalgic mood and they broke out their old Nintendo DS games to play.
This afternoon Dominica and I watched some Vagabrothers on YouTube. Travel stuff about Mexico City.
November 10, 2018: Craft Shopping and Movie Night
Saturday. Today it was time to take Luciana to the craft store. She has been asking to be able to go because she wants art supplies. So everyone decided to come along for the trip.
We drove out to Plano to go to Michael’s. Paul and I hit the liquor store in the plaza while the girls hit the craft store. Then we joined them.
Luciana looked at loads of paints and art supplies and picked up a few things, including a huge supply of canvases. Liesl looked through things and found all kinds of cool educational kits that she asked for for Christmas. She really wants E=MC2 stuff.
Liesl and I had a movie night tonight. First we watched Harry and the Henderons which is something that I have been wanted to show her. She liked it. It is such a classic. I’m very happy that she liked it because it is old for her and that is always a risk that she will not like it just because it is old.
The we watched National Treasure which I tried to get Liesl to watch previously but she did not want to see. Finally I talked her into it and she liked it.
November 9, 2018: Best Worst Weekend Ever
Friday. Up and to work around eight. Made coffee at nine. Overall it was a pretty slow day.
Paul went out to go grocery shopping, and to pick me up some wine, this afternoon.
At around three thirty Dominica took the girls out to go out to a playground.
This evening Liesl and I hung out and watched the Netflix series Best. Worst. Weekend Ever. She really liked it and decided that she liked the idea of LARPing and wants to do it sometime.
November 8, 2018: Jack Ryan
Thursday. Today was pretty slow in the office. Slow enough that this afternoon the girls and I were able to go out for a walk.
Tonight Dominica and I finished watching the first season of Jack Ryan on Amazon Prime.
Quiet and rainy around here tonight.
