Started my day a bit after 4AM, which had the distinct advantage of letting me get my desk cleared off early. Plus, I got to see the sun rise for the first time in a while. Sent off a couple of contracts in the hopes of enticing people to do business with KGN in the future, too….
MoreUp at 5:30, not feeling my best but there was work to be done. Fortunately the little bit of congestion I started the day with vanished as time went on. Whatever low-level crud the kids have is affecting me just a bit….
MoreGot up at 5 and got through some email, including getting out a quote for a job that KGN landed today. Then it was time to pack Thomas into the truck and deliver him to the zoo. He’s quite enjoying being off at a camp without parental or sibling supervision….
MoreIn some ways it was a typical Monday – I got very little code written. But on the plus side, a lot of the flurry of activity for this week was in sales calls. I landed one new contract for ActionRails, and got a line on a couple of others. Hopefully this means that the work drought from the last few months is coming to an end….
MoreSeems like every time we turn around, someone is snuffling. The kids have all been through fevers and mild coughs the last few days, and although it’s just a summer cold, it’s annoying – and they’re getting bored. Dana spent an hour doing art projects with them this morning, which helped a bit….
MoreStarted with my usual early bird day, and after the kids were fed I settled down to write some code. In fact, I spent most of the day just writing code, which was nice – no client pressure, no distractions, just working on a project for RailsBridge….
MoreThe day started early (4:30) and with some good news – contract confirmed from last night, and a potential lead on a little bit more work. Hopefully the universe is going to loosen up and deliver some more work to my door soon….
MoreUp at 4:30 to write some code that was trying to get out of my head. We’re doing a major refactoring on one of our jobs, and much of today went for bringing the proof of concept together….
MoreI was awake at 5Am and somehow that was just barely enough to get through the day. There seem to be a lot of things piled up on my desk just now. It didn’t help any that there’s still some sort of cold running through the family….
MoreLindsey was awake at 4AM because her bladder was just a bit too full. But she was wide awake, so we got up and came downstairs, where she had breakfast and TV, and I had breakfast and email….
