Don’t Dismiss Your Gen X Talent - Sylvia Ann Hewlett - Harvard Business Review http://ping.fm/zpwAU
It seems silly but I have to make sure I’m wearing matching socks today. Yesterday, Julia pointed out that my socks didn’t match. By this point it was already the end of the day…
Crazy wind over night and this morning. I can hear the wind blowing onmy windows.
I don’t think I’ve seen my work inbox empty before…
For the past week or so I’ve been looking at several sites with a list of generators. I found what seems like a nice one at Costco that is within my price range. I would say the amount of power it can generate is overkill. But my inner Tim Allan keeps grunting power. A 7,500 watt generator that can burst up to 9,000 watts is more that my house would really need. With that much power I could run everything and not have to worry about running out…. I still have more research to do before I commit any money to this. I might have to put it off until the after I get my bonus pay out in September. This is the last year I’m going to deal with any power outages from PSE. I don’t like to lose my power in general but I’m really not happy when it’s winter and snowing.
15 - 20% tution increases per year is not sustainable.

It looks like my scanner will live a little longer, I was able to repair it. Woot!
I might need a new printer…
Just one more thing to break around the house. Last night I was trying to scan some of my bills and wouldn’t you know it my scanner broke. I might have to take it apart tonight and see if I can figure out why it stopped running. I suspect it’s the flatbed scanner that’s the root of the problem. I’m anticipating that I’ll need a new multi-function printer. I saw there were some decent one for pretty cheap that will do multi-sided scans with the ADF and double sided printing now. I think the printer email address might be the best feature. Even if it didn’t have that service it’s not like it would be hard to script.
No luck with getting a generator. I was able to get a new one from Lowell’s but it was DOA. I’ll have to return in and just tough it out. Were not expecting power until Sunday. :-(
