Friday Five: Now ACTUALLY on a Friday
1. Work Out with the new boss in with an old boss… or something like that. After a long while of reporting directly to the CTO (which was interesting in being able to give feedback directly to the upper management.. but boring in that he really didn’t have any tasks for me or know well enough what I was doing…

Five Things: Stepping Up
1. Work Out with the old boss in with the new, for now. After my old boss announced he was leaving in January he went to radio silence. I’ve been told he was around until May.. but I didn’t see hide nor hair of him and he certainly wasn’t checking in on my progress on projects. I guess it’s a…
Five Things: Sparkly!
1. Work/Programming New year new project. At the end of last year we realized that a bit of software we hadn’t tried to use since JUNE had died. It turns out that Google deprecated the API that bit of software used. I didn’t write the software, I just inheirited it. That said.. it came to me as a compiled stand…
Five Things: Holidays and stuff
Yeah, still alive. 1. Work/Programming Work is doing that end-of-year winding down. In fact I am on vacation from this coming Thursday until next year. So there’s really not much going on. I have one project on my list.. but that won’t really get going until next year. In the meantime I’m a documentation demon. Nothing fills time so fully…
Five Things: Mini-Human
1. Work/Programming Busy is good. At the moment I’m working at home 3 days a week. I’ve actually had to start using a computerized task list to track the status on all my projects so I don’t lose track of any of them. I have so many currently in process it was becoming hard to keep track of how each…
Five Things: Did you miss me?
Long time no write. Babies keep you busy. Let’s see if I can do a summary. My son, Erik Alexander Stroud, was born at 10am on November 19, 2013 via C-section. He weighed in at 8lbs 14oz and we are over the moon. I was on maternity leave for 3 months and have just started back to work. While on…
Friday Five: All baby.. all the time
1. Work/Programming I’m tying up the last of the loose ends. Today is my last work at home day before maternity leave officially starts. I think I’ve handed off all my projects.. but I also think there’s quite a bit of “things I do under the radar” that there’s really no one else to cover for me. I’m sure the…
