5:37pm, pacific standard time, hotel in Dublin, California, USA, Tuesday evening, September 20, 2022. Got back into my workout routine this morning after taking the last couple of days off. It felt good to work up a sweat and build some muscle. Work was busy with lots of meetings today. I am glad it is over. Positive side note: when I checked in to the hotel yesterday the television in my room didn’t work, but I was able to fix it by myself just now.
Month: September 2022
Back in Dublin, California
5:54pm, pacific standard time, hotel in Dublin, California, USA, Monday evening, September 19, 2022. Had a good day yesterday. Took it easy, ran a couple of errands, finished the book I was reading and watched football. This morning I flew to Oakland then drove to Dublin. The flight was delayed and baggage took forever. I did not get into town until after three. I am at the hotel, checking email and getting ready for work tomorrow.
Out and about
5:59pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Dana Point, California, USA, Saturday evening, September 17, 2022. Spent most of the afternoon driving around and going for walks with the dog. Now I am back in the apartment, enjoying a beer and catching up on college football scores. Nice to spend a day out and about, rather than cooped up inside like usual.
Dana Point Friday
5:59pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Dana Point, California, USA, Friday evening, September 16, 2022. Took my daughter to school this morning, then picked her mom up from the auto mechanic down the street. After that I worked all day before going back to pick my daughter up from school and drop her mom off to pick up her car. Now it is time for dinner and a movie before taking my daughter to a friend’s house for a sleepover.
Orange County Thursday
7:04pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Dana Point, California, USA, Thursday night, September 15, 2022. Spent the day working in San Bernardino then drove to Orange County this afternoon. The dog and I went for a walk before we ate dinner. Afterwards, I took my daughter for an evening drive. We talked, listened to music and stopped for ice cream. Now we are playing video games and doing laundry.
Family again
5:20pm, pacific standard time, hotel in San Bernardino, California, USA, Wednesday evening, September 14, 2022. Today was a better day than yesterday; definitely not as stressful. Mostly it was a day of training and meetings. On a personal note I decided to go to Dana Point tomorrow instead of staying another night in San Bernardino. I want to see my family again.
I am drained
5:49pm, pacific standard time, hotel in San Bernardino, California, USA, Tuesday evening, September 13, 2022. Today started with me conducting an emotionally charged meeting. By the time it was over I felt exhausted. But with no time to regroup I went to the branch office and did one-on-one training for seven hours. Now I am drained. The rest of my evening is dinner and sports television followed by reading a new book.
In San Bernardino, California
6:41pm, pacific standard time, hotel in San Bernardino, California, USA, Monday night, September 12, 2022. Drove in from Chandler this afternoon. Got to the hotel just before the rain and flash flood warnings started. Now I am relaxing by watching football after a big dinner. Time to get ready for the rest of the work week.
Preparing
5:24pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Chandler, Arizona, USA, Sunday evening, September 21, 2022. Woke up later than usual this morning. It was too late to walk or exercise so I had breakfast with a friend then came home to watch football and read. In the afternoon I went for a drive and visited the casino. Now I am doing laundry and preparing for the next two weeks of work.
A good September Saturday
4:07pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Chandler, Arizona, USA, Saturday afternoon, September 10, 2022. Going to see a friend this evening, have dinner and hang out. This morning I exercised, paid my bills and finished some things for work. Then I ran to the store for groceries, watched football, took a nap and played guitar. A good September Saturday.
