Weekly review: Week ending November 28, 2014
Posted: - Modified: | review, weeklyOkay! My brain is slowly returning to normal, I think. =) I might even be able to drop by my consulting clients again, go to meetings, and do other things like that. We'll see.
Lots of writing time, a fair bit of coding (both for work and for personal projects), and family time too. Some geeking around with W-. It felt like I got a lot done even though I still spent about 40% of the week asleep (average of 10 hours). Yay!
