the world from my point of view
Valerie Valerie’s Christmas present. The Girls and I are embarking on an effort to do a ‘make-over’ of Valerie’s workspace.Valerie will get a new desk (which can be raised and lowered with electric motors), dual display (with mount), a draft table light, computer mount and more compact keyboard. I had already prepared a slab for…
The day started with me walking Mavis and Maggie heading off to work. Mavis can run circles around me now so she will find some high ground, sit, and wait for me. I did some coding on Merva for most of the morning. Judah was over yesterday and Max was hanging out with Molly today….
Girls The Girls got into an argument about borrowing stuff. It was about 7am and I guess it was time to wake up! Mavis got a double walk as I headed out early and then bumped into other ‘walkers’ with a friendly dog. Molly asked to be picked up early from school as she was…
Maggie Maggie turned 18 today. The event was a bit muted due to COVID (damn pandemics!). Valerie went into Sechelt with Maggie to buy something (clothes I would imagine). Judah came over and we all had a bit of chill time. We ended the evening with some old videos of Maggie. Christmas i do not…

Coding Well the migration back to HostPapa is pretty much complete. I have to switch the registrar for two of the domains (from Network Solutions to HostPapa). Meanwhile; back in the office I am transferring the last of the backup files to the new external drive. The old server was cleared and I attempted to…
Someone from the Fraser valley purchased the tractor today. They plan to use it for making trails – so seems like a good fit.
Girls Maggie was off first thing to work. I hardly even had a chance to say ‘hi’ to her yesterday. Molly walked to work after school and then ‘hung out’ with a boy who is increasingly looking like her boyfriend. Valerie and I went into the Village and retrieved her around 8pm. I drove Molly…
