Not too much to say today. Just a typical Tuesday. Weatherwise it rained in the morning and was overcast for the rest of the day.

I felt good this morning. Getting rid of that clutter in the garage feels gratifying. I feel a sense of accomplishment. I still have much to do but it was a very big dent. The yard is mostly cleaned out. This week I am going to do all the small things.

My plan during the week is to do my normal household duties and include something small in addition. Spending about 30 minutes to get something done. Clearing out the last part of the camping gear or pulling summer stuff down outside for winter weather permitting. The weather should clear up tomorrow so everything will be dry before I pack them away. This weekend I will drop more stuff off at Goodwill. I will include this in my morning weekend ritual as I do grocery shopping.

Another thing I am going to do is go for a walk. My son wants to go too. So, it will be a nice walk and talk time we can do through the week and not just on Saturday.  I just need to get active and start to lose 8 pounds and start building muscle. Like everything in my life, I have been putting it to the side for way too long. I just need to get into the habit of doing it, once it becomes a habit, I just do it without thinking about it.

 I dropped off all the stuff I pulled from the garage the other day at Goodwill. I still have half my camping gear to go through. I ran out of time to do it this weekend. The pool has been neatly put away for next year. Yard is looking good. I need to finish next week.

Glad it is a Friday. I need to relax and just enjoy working in my backyard. I started to work out to see if it would help my posture and headache. I am in front of a screen for most of the day and need to take a break from it.

 Moving my work and personal note taking to a PARA framework. I believe this is a better method than the one I have been using. There are so many things I am handling now; I need a better framework to keep all this information.
I need to do a better job with my meeting notes. I had 2 actionable items that I totally forgot to setup this morning.
Tomorrow is going to be busy for me to do my job and reorganize everything.

We had heavy rain throughout the day. I was watching it out the office window in the meeting room before my presentation. Busy day at work but finished the day off playing video games with my children. Overall, a good day.

 Long day. I had 3 presentations and a manager’s meeting. My presentation was on a text expander software we use in the office to save time. It rained for most of the day and cleaned up the city. It looks shiny and clean.
My new workflow is coming together. It is simpler and the information I need to see is always visible. At work I use two monitors, and two Surface 2 in 1s (pro and go) as additional monitors. I use my Kendle Scribe to read all my company newsletter to make sure I am up to date with products and known issues and new knowledge base articles. I find it easier to read them on my epaper than from an LCD screen. Plus, I can get away from my desk and read it anywhere. I should write a post on how I set this whole thing up once I have everything smoothed out.

I was very tired once I got home so I took a nap. I played games with the kids and read before bed. Spent time just looking out the window watching the rain fall. There is something peaceful about it. It’s something I enjoy doing when camping in the woods in the autumn days.

 I am continuing to change my workflow at work. Simplified my email box and found a way to spend time to read things I find important that I find in my email or website on my Kindle Scribe for a later time easily. Trying to make my process quick as possible.

I did our weekly grocery shopping this morning with my son. Purchased healthy foods and just one unhealthy snack. Cleaned up the computer while watching the Seahawks game. I just enjoyed the day relaxing and organizing.
