This week I had an on-site at the office.  It was nice to see people and be around the team.  

We got horrible news at the start of the week, Roger took a turn for the worse when they transferred him to a long term facility.  He was on Ativan and morphine since Tuesday afternoon and passed peacefully on Sat Oct 24th. 

Roger was such a caring and loving human. He loved his family deeply especially mom. I will always remember how kind he was and how he always made me feel at home.  He had an amazing Donald Duck voice.  

Hannah made it to the doubles tournament and she won her first game then lost and was eliminated on day 2.  

We bought Tyler the wood for his grandfather clock. So hes ready to rock and roll and build it soon.

Work has been a shit show for a  couple months now.  This week was no different. Ive leaned that I need to be very mindful of scope creep. 

Tyler has a good week.  Hes been working hard on his grandfather clock. We finally signed him up for his AP US History test and his behind the wheel.  If all goes right he will have his DL on Dec 21st. 

Hannah had her last league game this week against El Cap. Paul, Rhonda, Jessica, Harper and Erica came out to support her.   She qualified for JV Doubles tournament next week. 

Tyler and i went to a card show in Oceanside. We got quite a bit of cards we needed. It was pretty fun to card shop w Tyler. We are master setting Chaos Rising.

It was such a hot start to the week that ended in a very wet weekend. I got my thumb looked at on Wednesday to find out that I have early signs of Arthritis, not good cause its my dominant hand too. 

Tyler did some night driving on Friday for the first time. He did decent. He needs more practice for sure.  He also got a much needed haircut so he was pretty stoked this weekend to get that done. We also went to Ninja Exchange in Carlsbad to hunt for the last 2 cards to complete my Perfect Order master set.  I have all the cards in the set, worth $502 today.  Hopefully it will age nicely.  
Got to watch Hannah play at Monte Vista on Thursday. She's gotten a lot better since she firsy joined in August.

Work has been super busy, no surprises there.  Its been a bit difficult because ive been feeling ill.

I took Tyler driving this weekend, we probably got about 3 hours in.  He drove us to run errands, drove us home from the mall and drove me to and from the cemetery. 

Hannah won her matches this week which was nice. She has an away and home game this coming week. Hopefully she wins against Mt Miguel on Tuesday. 

We also saw Ralph this weekend.  He picked up more of his stuff from storage.  He has a desk and planter left to go.  At some point we will move the bird cage back to moms house and put it in the garage.

Another busy week at work.  So much to do with no time. 

Tyler got more driving in this week.  He had his 2nd behind the wheel training. Dan had him drive from Santee to Oceanside then back home again.  Hes gaining confidence each time he drives. 

Hannah did good this week with Tennis.  She did really well with her matches. Shes getting better and better each day. Her singles game is getting better too.  

This weekend I cleaned both cars, worked on my office space and took Hannah Homecoming dress shopping.  I also took her to a revolving sushi restaurant.  She enjoyed.

This was a short but very long week. Got to see a couple of coworkers from LA.  Work wise it was a super long week.  Im covering for my senior director while shes on pto.  Its intimidating because she has very large shoes to fill. 

Tyler got to see his friends football game in Ramona on Friday.  

Hannah won a game and also won a match.  Shes gaining confidence and its showing in her game.
