Thankfully it looks like the power grid will hold this time around.

This winter storm is no joke!

Woke up to a good bit of sleet on the ground. Looks like we’ve missed most of the freezing rain that was predicted, so that’s good news. Hoping the sleet turns into snow, but that might be wishful thinking.

No matter what you celebrate, I hope y'all all have a wonderful and restful holiday season!

It's a band kind of night. UIL 5A state championship prelims on the TV and UNT Symphonic and Concert Bands on the laptop.

Go Mean Green!
Welp. Someone’s having an extremely bad Monday. (As far as I could see, no one was hurt and I don’t think it had spread to the building yet.)

Well ... at least the sunset was pretty today.

Been busy the last couple of weeks, starting from scratch with Digital Shopfront CMS. It feels like there's been slow progress so far, but I'm hoping that now that a lot of the heavy lifting in the backend is done, I can start to move more quickly. The goal is to have it ready for a beta test by the end of the year.

On the plus side, I have definitely learned a great deal about PHP, Laravel, Livewire, and more. Nothing beats learning by doing!

Went for a run this morning for the first time in a bit, and the view did not disappoint!
