• A day like any other when you're retired.
• 6:00 am flight to DFW
• Atlanta tonight, Dominican Republic tomorrow
• Have a good weekend, good people.

Finally got a good night of sleep.

59 degrees this morning in the Fort.

At the end of the day I will have 64 hours in at work this week.

These long days are starting to wear on me.

High School football tonight.

No big plans for the weekend.

BTHO Florida!

Have a wonderful day!

First paycheck with only 70% of my pay in it.

-last day of new job training in Chicago
-it's been a LONG week
-fly home
-fight 35 traffic to get home to 8th grade band night at the hs game
-sleep
-try not to stress about new job situation this weekend-ouch

Cool (53) morning in west Georgia/east Alabama. Speaking of which, we got gifted with free tickets to the West Georgia/Abilene Christian game tomorrow afternoon in Carrollton, GA. ACU is a Tarleton State rival. Tarleton visits Utah Tech in St. George, UT.

A good day starts with good coffee.

Make it a good one in spite of what the rest of humankind is up to.

Slept like a dead person.

Can't find my new toll tag. Maybe it's in the console of the car. I need to put it into the Sticker Shield I bought and get it affixed to the windshield.

Meeting schedule is lighter today. That's good.

Haven't decided yet on what to do this weekend. There are multiple options.

We could really use some rain.

-Slept decent
-Just a few meetings today.
-Gotta read 2 chapters out of a book so we can discuss in a meeting this afternoon.
-Not sure about this evening. Should do travel work but I try to not do that on Friday evening. Maybe Aggie Softball.


Make it a great day.

Y'all still having trouble hiring people?

TGIF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm very sorry for you. My sister works at the JSC in Clear Lake, and I haven't had the heart to even ask her if she's still working. I hope this is over soon.

Dark outside with rain/thunder/lightning. Only 54F though, so it feels fall-like when you go outside. We need the rain badly, but it's supposed to clear out by afternoon. As I have to go to the laundromat, I can't really complain too much.

I think I might have a case of pink eye this morning. I'm trying to figure out where I would have gotten it. Benny doesn't have it, so I don't think he brought it home from school. I work from home, and outside of my morning coffee at the gas station, I don't really go anywhere. Took some Visine just now, and I'm hoping that takes care of it, but we'll see...

Have a crew now. New Location manager starts Monday. That should help on the long hours.

Picked up an Aero Press on Amazon and tried it out this morning. Definitely worth getting but the old French press is easier.

Work
Fly out to IAH
Decide what to colors to wear for Aggie game tomorrow as I take He Who Shall Be Unnamed Junior to see his beloved Florida Gators take on the Aggies at Kyle Field

Pink eye?

• Fishing tonight
• .38 Special concert tomorrow at the Austin County fair. I've been wanting to see them for a while. My hearing is going to be an issue (SSD). I'll tell my crew that I can't hear/understand them with all the noise, and they'll keep talking to me anyway expecting me to hear.

Yep

Emmitt Smith will be wearing maroon and white tomorrow, so keep that in mind.

Apparently not pink eye as Visine seems to have cured it. No idea what the issue was.

I can tell you what happened. And if you don't stop that, you could go blind.

So, following that logic, I should wear blue and (not burnt) orange.

Does your son play for UF?

He plays school for UF.

At the laundromat. People watching here is less interesting than at an airport terminal.

- Committee meeting and then calling to give a few updates that upset a board member with a delicate ego, as I knew it would
- He's not wrong but man, move on
- The poppi cream soda is SO GOOD
- Spent all my energy on board stuff, now I hope to veg in quiet
