Do you have a writer embedded with each scrum team, lisah?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I did not get my plastic rectangle today either, Tom.
Boo.

Tis the season for plastic rectangles! (Funnily enough, I had ordered new ones too, but to add customization so they're a little less open to fraud in person-doesn't help the online much. But I also just wanted to see those pictures more. Credit took a week from shipped notice to arrival. Debit arrived same day as shipping notice. I think wires got crossed.)
We'd have a murder if docu went into a dev& test scrum cycle. Official, deliverable driven by a whole different schedule not determined by us + we have no writers. Internal docs, well...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
GOOD MORNING, NATTER!

Well, someone's coffee is working this morning.
I have been to Trader Joes and back, given the dog a romp with her best friend, fed the girl and set her up to nurse her cold from the couch with tea and honey, and sent the fellow up to B'more to pick up our skis. We are all sort of hoping the gymnastics meet we have tonight gets cancelled so the girl can just keep nursing her cold.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Snow started here late yesterday. Wet roads on the interstate driving home, a little slushy on the side streets, but not a bad commute. By this morning I had 4.25 inches on my deck rail. [link]
Unusual for this area, there has been little wind and the temperatures have stayed close freezing or just above. No drifts, no icicles. Streets wet but not icy.

Sparky, how old is the girl now? I'm almost afraid to ask. I hope she's feeling better soon.

Not really, just my caps lock.
I can't believe we're still not getting any snow here this weekend. It will come eventually, but this feels really late in the season not to have any shovelable snow yet.

Our wings are not tired.
Snow! Not happening here, but it was cool to see it on my short NY visit. I even scored a pair of boots that I wore home with me, and left my shoes at my sister's house.
I stayed in bed until 10! Was up twice in the night to let the dog out. Man, water pills suck. Was pretty awake at 7 so I read for a while in bed and managed to snooze some more. Whee!
Now to get into project mode for sure!!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I got another full week at the same ASD location, so I get to hang out with everyone longer. Am happy about that and how much the rest of the staff seems to like my contributions. Yay!
