The first 8 days back at work were a disaster – hardware failures mainly the cause. But things are calmer now and looking a little better, which should give me a chance to do a) what I’d planned to do at work this year and b) some free time at home!
Work. Still working on consolidation of our the database DR plans. Still working through shed loads of documentation (both writing and reading). The LCMS Upgrade on our test system does appear to be going well, very lucky to have Bob Worthman and our Sugard HE consultant. If 3.3 delivers on what it promises it will take a lot of pressure off the team and others, although may have to rewrite all the templates (doh).
Own time. Finding it harder to keep up with twitter – may need to look at some software clients to help. More ideas for the personal toolbar. Need to do a site for Dad – he’s asked for something along the lines of www.silver60.com, so shouldn’t take long.
New Year, New Plan?
personal January 1st, 2009
Probably not.
2008 was a little strange and flew by. High points: Sam (as usual), Walking the coast to coast with my Dad, running my first half marathon, going camping in Devon. Low points: Let’s not dwell on those…
Hopes and plans: Generally more time spent doing what I enjoy and less of what I don’t. Need to read more fiction, more walks, more running, more rugby. Need to get java certified. Need to move on at work. And Sam starts school in September – already.
