Assuming that that picture made it, it’s of a new feral cat who’s been showing up on my deck for the last few days. Very pretty black kitty and it seems wee-fed and happy. Maybe it’s not feral, but I’ll treat it as such. You can also see how much pollen has been falling in the last few days. It’s making walking a lot less enjoyable, but I guess it’s to be expected given the mild winter we had. It’s kind of scary that the WORST pollen generally doesn’t happen until late April. Continuing to work from home and I’m now into the third week of it. I’ve noticed that it’s becoming more difficult to stay focused on work. Need to figure out a way to stay more engaged with my team, since I’m not actively working tickets like they are. I’m trying to provide assistance for them, but it’s very easy to take a break from that and read some news pages (or Facebook), or run to the kitchen for a snack, or just stare out the window. I might try to set up a written schedule and daily milestones for myself until I get fully comfortable with the idea of being part of a team while in isolation. It’s tougher than I thought it would be. I think it would be much easier if I were still an L1 and just needed to answer the phone and work tickets.
Going Mobile Again
I set up the Bluetooth keyboard on my phone again this morning. Haven’t used it since I was in Michigan 18 months ago, but since I’m doing most of my work in the office on my work laptop, which I really try to keep separate from my personal stuff, it’s easier to keep this site updated from my phone. Therefore, please be more understanding of typos and don’t expect a huge number of photos until I can remember how to get them into posts with this little WordPress app. Just for grins, I’ll try to insert one here… Assuming that that picture made it, it’s of a new feral cat who’s been showing up on my deck for the last few days.
