What a week, just wow! Monday started out well enough, I was getting ready for a data warehouse preview I was going to do on Tuesday. Then Tuesday rolls around, and it seems we need a whole bunch of mock data that can be used for testing. I had already half built Integrations to populate the ancillary data but was nowhere near having anything end-to-end. So Wednesday was a complete hackathon, and today was doing the same thing, but putting it in a logical order so it can be done again if needed. Of course, putting it together in a logical order and having it ready to replicate means it will not be needed.

It was actually nice to be running at full bore again. It’s been a hot minute since I put things together like that. It felt great to be useful.

I’m trying a new methodology of writing posts that doesn’t have anything to do with writing. I’m just using the WordPress app on my phone to dictate the post. This has some great advantages in that I don’t have to be in front of a keyboard to create a post. For someone who earns a living working with computers, I sometimes don’t take advantage of the modern marvels that we carry around in our pocket and the technology they offer. I’m going to work on that.

Tomorrow is friday, Sandy will be back, and it’s Mother’s Day weekend. I need to catch up on inside stuff, and the lawn probably needs to be cut again if the weather cooperates. I also have the roofers coming on Monday to remove the leaking Skylight in the kitchen and shingle over. Hopefully, that stops the leak, I can make the repairs and move forward with the kitchen remodel.

We also have a new pope today. Hope Leo the 14th I think, he’s also the first pope from the United States. I guess they figured if the Antichrist is running the United States best to get someone from there to be God’s messenger on Earth.

Life is good and I’m looking forward to the weekend!
