Well, cleveland was okay minus the fact that I didn't get any internet for work on Friday. Got home on time but getting there was a trick. Our flight out of Cleveland was delayed to a mechanical issue that was later revealed to be a hatch that wasn't staying closed well, thus it reduced our speed. Both my coirker, through different routes ran to our gate and we were the last folks on the plane. That was tough and the flight was good and our luggage even made it. Impressive.
Saturday I got up early due to being on EDT. Got some toast and read for a while. Then when mel got up we had coffee and talked and enjoyed a laxy morning. I headed to the shop for about noon and stefan and I worked on the casting. It went really well. We also got to help Roland with a project that needed 6 sets of hands. Though early on in the day I bent over weirdly and tweaked the left side of my lower back by looking at the temp on the kiln.
Got home by way of Lala for her meds, and then picked up mel and headed to thyra's for her b-day BBQ. Had a nice time and then we were home a bit after 7pm. I got things ready, packed for my trip and was in bed just after 9pm. I slept good and mel didn't even wake up when I got up at 520am. I woke him up to say good bye and had an uneventful flight out. Got more work on documentation done and then worked on finishing another book.
Last week I read #27 - Kindred in Death. Then read #28 Iron Kissed by Patrica Biggs. I'm now in #29 - Big Jack by Robb and will ready another knitting mystery book by the end of the week I'm sure. But documentation must take precedence.
Our travels in AR have been nice. The weather is good and we found a dive little diner to eat at. I had the catfish dinner with twice baked potato. The possum pie was shared (cream cheese, chocolate mouse, whipped cream and nuts in a home make flaky bottom crust). Our plans for the morning will be me getting up and hitting the fitness room, they have a weight set and treadmill and then heading out for breakfast and hitting the company. Not too bad of a day. Luckily the TDP for this vendor is small. But I get to tour an extrusion factory which is neato. Then we fly to montgomery by way of atlanta and then I'll be home on Tuesday night after morning meetings there. Oof. Baby is handling the flights okay. The pressure feels weird I must say with the take offs and landings and by the end of the day I'm sore. Might just be how things are with my core muscles getting pushed around from the inside. Other than that and my back aching from Saturday things are feeling okay. I plan on working on documentation until about 10pm tonight or when I get tired and then sleeping really well.
We are staying at a new La Quinta Inn and its nice. Very well laid out rooms and the room had a lazy boy style chair that I sat in for over an hour working on things. I'm now curled up in the bed with LOTR: RotK playing and I'll work more on docs. I had a bit of a freak out last night thinking I only had 2 weeks before A&S. Nope its more. So, all good. Though the two weeks after vacation will be busy. After tomorrow I'll find out if I'm back here again for a trip right after A&S. That would be good for business but suck since mel is gone until the 4th...oh well.
Well, enough journalling for the night. Time to write some documentation.
