Happy Doperversary, teelabrown! ![]()
I don’t remember the last time I was able to post in an MMP on a Monday! Woo hoo! There are definitely things I should be doing, but my next meeting isn’t until 2pm and I’ve decided that I’m taking the next ~45 min off.
The rest of the day will be busy: I’m interviewing a project analyst candidate[1] at 3pm, then I have a hard stop at 4pm so I can get from the office to my old house in time for my 5pm move-out inspection. We’re supposed to get some big thunderstorms right around 5-6pm: I’m hoping the worst of it will hold off long enough for me to get back in the car after the walk-through.
Then it’ll be a 10-minute drive to the new house, where I’ll get to park in a garage and stay nice and dry!
Yesterday’s lunch with dad and bro went well. Traffic was only somewhat annoying (mostly just volume issues), and I made both drives in about an hour each; only 15-20 min longer than they should have been. Last night I finished building the Lego wolf, but I can’t access my preferred image host from work so I won’t be able to post a picture until later in the week.
A bit of catching up from yesterday before diving into this week’s posts:
I hadn’t even thought about that! Now I’ll double down my efforts to install the replacement, so that it’s in place before the cleaners come for the first time.
I’ll decide later. ![]()
I apologized profusely and was shaken up enough that I retired from cart driving for the rest of the day
Awww.

Definitely looking forward to seeing Snoopy’s Doghouse. Snoopy is my favorite!
Then that’s the one I’ll build next.
Thank you for helping me decide!!
Continuing the One Big Gift theme, Mrs Magill and the boys gave me a Lego Balrog set for Fathers’ Day.
That’s one of the sets I fixed on Saturday!
It was the most badly broken of all of them, because I dropped it – on a hardwood floor – while trying to shrink-wrap it.
The last set that needs to be fixed is the Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters, which I’ll tackle this weekend (before I start Snoopy). It’s really big, but it broke in sections that seem to be easily reattached…we’ll see! I didn’t drop that one, it just wasn’t able to handle much movement.
for a new position; not a replacement for the absconded project manager ↩︎
