Work was odd
Aug. 6th, 2010 07:49 amWell, work was very strange. I had a telecon where I go to use baking terms to explain how to build our piece of composite hardware. It worked and the non-tech guys on the call understood our issues and the composites folks who I talked with later realized that was a really good analogy and they will be using it later to explain things. So, I felt pretty good about that. after that I think I ground some gears trying to switch to a configuration change we've been working on. Part of the issue is we have a lot of configs at each indenture of assembly. Most of the configs have a specific purpose but since I'm new I don't know those nuances and it takes some digging but I think I finally had a handle on it to ask a specific question to the right people. woot. Course they are out until monday but I guess its better to know what the question is than not even have a clue.
After work I headed to the gym. I was tired and it was a leg day. I worked hard, kept good form and did well. I was still kind of annoyed at only squatting 50lbs. Told Bob, the gym director, and he laughed. I've been using a machine that you put weights on that has a tilted platform so you can do squats and hack squats. What I didn't know is that the carrier has some weight to it. It has about 60lbs of weight to it. So I've been doing 3 sets of 10 for squats and hack squats. LOL. I haven't been sucking. So know I'm pretty confident I can actually use the bar and do squats in the cage verus using the machine but the machine is much easier to set up. We shall see. I'll try it out on monday.
Got done with the gym, headed home, grabbed food for D&A, dropped it off and came home. Mel was working on his halstad weaving and I had dinner and started working on the crobot some more. I was tired. My legs were already sore and my head was starting to ache from the monsoon rolling in. I worked on the crobot but my brain wasn't on it, I was tired. I ended up hitting the shower about 845 and then was asleep just about 930 or so. I was tired. I woke up when mel got into bed but only when he turned his light off. I woke up thinking the power had gone off. I hit the bathroom and curled back into bed until the alarm. Snuggled up with hubby for a bit and that was nice, just wish today was the day off. Oh, well, next week.
Today, my legs are sore and my right knee is twingy. I had slipped in the shower the night before and its out and I usually can't get that one to reset. We'll see how I do, gonna do lots of walking today to keep things loose. Then after work I'm going to get my toes done and a bit of other pampering. Plus I want to make some banana pudding. It looked good in the paper and mel said his dad used to make it all the time. Sounds interesting and sounds very summery. I like pudding and bananas so its all good. Not sure what we will make for dinner but I'm sure we'll come up with something.
