Sitting back listening to the radio on the recliner and I decided to post on my blog. It’s been a while. A lot has gone on but not much of it has been with me. My Mom moved from my Brother’s house to Florida and she seems to be doing okay down there. I am not going to get into all the details surrounding my Mom moving but the move to my Brother’s house was seen as a temporary thing from the beginning. It will all work out best for everyone in the long run.
Work has been really good. It’s just been a lot of helping residents and doing projects. These projects fill the time between service calls. We have a junior programmer (former support guy like me) whose last day is Friday so we’re all going to lunch on Thursday as a team. I’m still doing the Biggest Loser competition at work and I’m down 21.5 pounds so far. I am also the IT Team leader for a walking program we’re doing at work. It’s called Walk To Wellness and we’re all getting pedometers to track our steps. Each week my team turns in their steps to me and I submit the total as a team. We’re competing against other teams at work. It should be fun and I walk a lot.
As far as tech stuff goes, I haven’t been worrying too much about new computer stuff or cell phones. I have an Android phone I like an an iMac I’m happy with. I guess the cool new thing will be that work is replacing our crappy Blackberry Bold 9330 (I think?) with newish Android phones, the Motorola Photon 4G on Sprint. It’s basically the same as my personal phone with a slightly bigger screen and better camera. I am looking forward to it because I hate Blackberry phones. It’s technology from the 90′s and is only still around because of business users. It’ll be nice to get rid of them in our business.
