I had a really productive meeting today with one of my stakeholder groups. I felt like we uncovered some things about that application and how it processes data that were really a good fit for how things should be done. We may have uncovered some unexpected bugs as well, which
Today we had Marks family Birthday Party. His actual birthday isn't until Tuesday, but my parents are leaving on vacations, so we did it a bit early. Mark was really excited because Evelyn was coming over. He wanted a piñata to show her what it was all about,
Today we picked up a couple of Marks friends for tubing. It was a small group, but these are the people that he hangs out with the most at school. The kids were really nice. The weather was supposed to rain, but it actually turned out really nice. It snowed
I am moving tables in a database from one server to another with an SSIS package. There are some difficulties with the information though. It's currently 62 tables, and will likely grow. The best way to tackle this was with a rock solid template object. This allows me

This morning Warren was complaining about his fan making to much room and said we needed to take it back and get a new one. I probably just need to take it down and install the correct box. I shimmed it against the ceiling and ordered a balancing kit to
Warren's fan died a few weeks ago, but I haven't been able to see well enough to replace it. So, while Nikki cleaned the house I took Warren to the store to pick out a fan. It was actually easy to find one he liked. It
Today I got an 8 minute straight run in. I've run that before, but only at about 4.6 mph. This was at this weeks 5.3 mph. It went really smoothly and I felt like my plan of slowly increasing speed is working. I had an early
Mark had an early Jr. Jazz game which was really nice. Warren was able to attend since most of his games hadn't been until after Warren was already in bed. He did pretty well, his running is getting a lot more normal especially earlier in the game before
