Time keeps on ticking...

I think of blogs as "journals" or "diaries".  I've never been much of a write down my thoughts kind of guy.  I prefer to write code.  Which should explain why I don't update things here very often.

So, here is a quick update on what has happened over the past year or so.

Boss retired, that sucked.  One of my coworkers from the team got promoted to be my boss, that did not suck.  He is good to me and lets me do the things I like to do, I guess I trained him well ;)

SP guy retired, that REALLY sucked because that meant I had to step up and BE the SP guy.  Not something that I love to do.  Hoping we get a new SP guy soon so I can get back to focusing on the things I like to do (coding!)

"Permanent" work from home.  That's pretty good.  Save on gas, clothes, food.

Replaced a lot of the flooring, both toilets, all cabinets, kitchen / dining / front hall lights, stove, all sinks, and switched tub to just a shower. (did all that instead of buying me a new car)

Well tank "died".  Had to limp along for 6 months waiting for the well guys to get parts so they could replace the whole system.  Got a continuous pressure system.  Way better than the normal tank crap we had before.  Now we can shower and run laundry or dishes at the same time.  Replaced the whole house filters while I was at it.

Did some more landscaping.

Got a new mirrored back glass for my DW... looks pretty cool.

Got 400mb internet.

Wrote several simple JavaScript games just because I could.  Nothing that I'd publish for others to see, just for myself and a hobby coder friend of mine.

Still miss my friends.
