    Conference was good again today. Between sessions we decided to go for a drive and we invited Mom to go with us. We got some great views up Farmington Canyon and on the way back we invited her to join us for the second session of Conference. We ended up spending almost 5 hours with…

    I can tell that I have some of the sickness that Laura is feeling and that everyone else has had to varying degrees. That’s not a fun thought as I am covering for Scott this week. We got a slow start today and I was the only one to go to Sacrament meeting for our…

    I’m dragging today – physically not in peak form and emotionally worn out as well. I think that Monday is catching up with me on both fronts – I detailed the emotional weight of the day in that journal entry, but I failed to mention that on top of all that I built two new…

    I just learned that Noreen’s baby died somewhere around the 15 week mark in her pregnancy – she just found out at her appointment today. My heart goes out to her and her family tonight. For myself, I need to remember to contact Lyall Swim and J.P. to see if either of them can do…

    Today was a very nice day at work as I finally felt like I had an ongoing issue that I could take ownership of on the Kronos system. I am becoming the defacto expert on Microsoft reports and I am determined to deliver reports that exceed the expectations of those who have been using them.…

    I nearly got a WordPress plugin working that I have been working on for a couple of weeks. It regulates posts so that they only publish during certain hours of the day, on certain days of the week, and at certain intervals – it also give the option of rotating between authors as much as…

    For weeks (months) Laura has been talking about her new friend Kim Baum. She’s the daughter of the Ralph Pond, the second counselor in our bishopric, and she has been going through the process of a divorce.

    We had a successful upgrade to Kronos 6.1 at work today. We even got all the reports working for the new version which was a huge load off of my mind (since I was largely in charge of that portion of the upgrade). I have come to the conclusion that I need to make better…

    Easter Weekend. What a time for rebirth. Laura and I have been having some real emotional challenges between us over the last week. I felt betrayed, abandoned, and abused.

    Laura has been having me go through my large stack of old letters. Most of them are from my mission, but really this includes virtually every letter I ever received. I thought I should make a few notes based on going back through those letters. I have been surprised at the number of notes and…
