The week of Jul 31, 2017 – Aug 6, 2017
Not a very diligent week for taking these notes…
Monday: Gym. Coursera work. Finished reading Cutting for Stone, by Abraham Verghese.
Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
One of the best books I’ve read. An epic story about lives, family, promises and keeping secrets. Moving and profound.
Tuesday: Body corporate trustees meeting. Unfortunately I’m chairman again.
Wednesday: Finished listening to audiobook of Bill Bryson’s A Short History of Nearly Everything. Gym, trainer session with Johnny. Tidied the flat. Side project coding. Reading.
Thursday: A nice burger takeaway from Eat Out the Box. Poker with the boys. I was second out.
Friday: After work drinks at work. Grocery shopping. Some side project coding.
Saturday: Gym, saw Simon and Lindsay. Donated blood #87. Lunch with mom at Cafe Magnifico. Watched Dunkirk at Canal Walk, pretty good. Walked Dixie. Watched a couple episodes of Suits – lame. Cracked a tooth.
Sunday: Lazy morning, reading and putting around. Lunch with mom, and a drive around the Atlantic seaboard to take advantage of a nice day. Some Coursera work.
My work week was divided as follows: 80% testing, 20% bug fixing.
Podcasts listened to this week: Hanselminutes; What It Takes; BBC Good Reads; Red Hot Poker.
