I lead a team at work and one of my new reports said she prefers if when an email chain has reached its conclusions if I'm the last person to respond to her that I've received her response. Like this isn't messages being carried by pigeons or being telegraphed over a wire, assume I've received your response and am appropriately appreciative.

Weird summer. Rain, rain, rain. We set all time low rainfall for six of the twelve months since 2020 so I was pretty used to drought times.

Odd sidebar. No slugs eating up my hostas. Wondering if the droughtski years knocked back the population? Would have thought all of this wet would have been ideal for them. Rabbits and deer have taken up the damage slack.

It's been an amazing 5 days with out of state family in town. So much uncle time. My heart is full and happy.


Favorite part of the out of town crew coming is when we do family pictures so I can get a group photo of me with all my nieces and nephews.

From left to right: Stellan, 5, Eliana 15, Alice 8, Mariela 11, Xiomara 7 and Jackson 10.

When you have a specific pain/symptom, and you want to google it, but you don't want to google it at the same time.

Finally made it to DFW today. Moved to a different hotel this time after a suggestion from a coworker. Even better it JUST finished getting remodeled and I am fairly certain I am the first person to be in this room.
