Yesterday was a decent day. Dropped Lauren at S. C. Transit station to catch the 8: 53 to Sacto. Returned sad but happy, and just in time for the weekly Jikoji meeting. I shared a few updates, got some positive feedback, and took action later in the day on documentation and scheduling process changes. It felt very satisfying to tackle the issues. Their need for integration between multiple sources of truth is text-book, from my experience, and I am on it. I'm starting to feel more confident and "adult "lately. At 62. I wonder where I fall on the bell curve. Adam and Jen walked to her childhood home and back. I sous-vide'd the Tri tip after 3 days of dry aging. Had I stayed by the BBQ instead of leaving it to flame wildly as the fat dripped and ignited, I could have prevented having put the house at risk! Much like the Matson event. I know I preach impermance but I don't want to burn my home down any time soon. I got lucky. The blue cheese from Tommy was wonderful. Likely one of the best I can recall having. Jen made chocolate ice cream. Tommy is off to Tahoe with his new friend, Dr Trager's son. Stephen, I think, We're glad he is making good connections and building out new relationships. Today we're going to chill at home. I have a handful of tasks I want to manage 'closing off' before going to Jikoji Sun-Fri, where my focus will be split between working aggressively to put some tech and process improvements in place while also revisiting my past year and looking ahead to what I want from 2024 from a spiritual place of presence and mental health.
