It was a working weekend. Not as much as others in my department, but several hours yesterday, plus early morning snapshots and patching this AM. I note this not to whinge about it, but to observe how important it is for me to do things the right way, regardless of the time of day or week. Some tasks require commitments outside of business hours, and I’m happy to do that, and enjoy a job well done. “Well … enough.” anyway, as GladOS would say.
I’m also caught up on the coffee roasting, did the shopping and a self-inflicted hair cut today, and managed to relax for a couple of hours each day, so life is pretty darn good. Oh, yeah, and I made a lobster pot full of red sauce. Yum!
