Week in Review

  • It’s the last full week of the year! (Yes, I know, next week is 50/50… I will probably start my week numbering over for 2026 next week though.)
  • Sunday afternoon, after posting my weekly update, I headed home to visit family for the holidays.
  • Sunday evening I gave my sister one of her gifts: a cold brew coffee maker, which we promptly had to try. Spoiler alert: she loved it. 🎉

Week in Review

  • Monday and Tuesday were pretty normal, with meetings scattered throughout the day. As I did last week, I worked remote Monday morning, then drove to the office for some in-person work in the afternoon.
  • Tuesday evening was our R&D Christmas party at a local establishment. For the… fourth year in a row, I was on the planning committee, so I arrived slightly early to set up, and stayed afterwards to assist with some minor cleaning. The food and festivities were fantastic, and I think everyone had a good time! 🎄

  • This past week largely saw a return to my normal schedule.
  • I worked remotely Monday morning, then headed to the office for some in-person meetings later in the day.
  • Monday evening as I prepared to leave work, a coworker asked me about my photo backup strategy, something I’d mentioned in passing before, but never in detail. She asked me to send her my recommendations, and instead of just a text, I ended up writing a blog post, which I published the next day. LINK

  • This week I’m combining two posts into one (25.46 and 25.47), as I was a) delayed writing last week’s post, and b) it was looking short anyhow.
  • I mentioned last week that I was heading to a game night after my post, which I did! This time, instead of just games, we also did a puzzle (in only… 3-4 hours?). Puzzle

  • Welcome to weekly note number 45 for 2025!
  • Not much out of the ordinary occurred in the office this week. I was in all 5 days, including a longer-than-normal Friday, due to me shifting some meetings that needed to occur but that I couldn’t find a place for to Friday.
  • Tuesday evening, a coworker that is primarily remote was in town, so a group of us went out to dinner in the evening at the venerable 208 House. I tried pasta this time, which didn’t disappoint, and finished off with gooey butter cake (yes, it’s a lot of sugar, but it’s also quite tasty!). Pasta

  • This week’s post will be fairly short. I was in the office Monday - Thursday, with a slightly higher volume of meetings than normal.
  • Wednesday morning I met a coworker at a local restaurant for breakfast and to catch up, which was a nice way to start the day! Breakfast
