‼️Announcements‼️
Welcome Grandmas! The weekly updates are just what I’m up to, so you can stay up to date between calls. I might give the updates a cooler name than just weekly updates, maybe “Proof of Life.” We’ll see.
Replies to everyone’s weekly updates and song recommendations were very strong last week. Finally, it’s harder than expected to send the link to everyone, so feel free to share it for me. To share: Click “Read Online” in the top right. Next, copy the URL in the search bar to the website it pulls up. Lastly, have the person open it and scroll to the bottom of the update and add their email.
🗓️ Weekly Rundown🗓️
FLIGHTS BOOKED: 2 tickets CMH → BCN: 12/3 - 12/21
Blake made some clutch plays and is Barcelona bound. Should be some lit updates in December between this quest and Christmas.
As Blake has made plays, the journey of getting passports in order has not been smooth sailing, more like sailing in Lake Superior with crazy November gales.
On Saturday got a 76% on the practice exam that’s harder than the real Series 7. The passing score is a 72 so we’re looking good, so good that the exam is scheduled for Saturday 11/29.
Feeling the pressure to cram for the exam, plan the trip, and work, but pressure makes diamonds.
Ready for studying to be over so I do not have to go to bed or wake up early to study. Plus I could go to Local Cantina and other adventures with gang instead of saying no and studying.
With heavy rain every Jfarms house needed cut and they were all money cuts, if there weren’t leaves, the neighborhood would have never looked better.
As requested via feedback I have attached photos of some yards I cut this week, Photos will be at the end of this section. Very much liked cutting grass all season, listened to good audiobooks and podcasts, and I enjoyed working with Mike(245) and Bossman Jack.
Finished Into the Wild. The story of the main character was crazy, but the author could have told his story in half the pages.
Started Dune. It sounds like it has potential but I don’t like how the author talks so I stopped and switched to the 1st Harry Potter and finished it. Was good.
Next up is Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and How to Win Friends and Influence People.
Can NVDA be stopped, not this earnings. 4 customers made up 61% of NVDA’s $57B revenue in a recent quarter is definitely a concern. If 4 customers decide they have enough chips and demand cools NVDA could be cooked.
Tossed the rock with Chase Burre. 1st time I picked up my twig in ages. Can confirm I am far from being washed up with my best days ahead of me.
Went to church with gang and part of the service they played a video, and the video asked a question. The whole church responded to the screen like we were watching Dora, and it made me laugh.
Roosters after with Edilts. The bet of the week was Colts money line at +230 with my free bet. Such great value, but after a tight game, the Chiefs won.
Helped someone build a budget and teach about investing #Financialadvisor
Wings with Fathers Wings night group at Hey Hey Bar & Grill
Played poker, won money, then lost ⅓ of the profit betting Tate couldn't run home in under 60 seconds
High:
Booked the plane tickets to Spain #UnemploymentMaxing and opening everyone’s responses.
Low:
Waking up to a text sent at 2 a.m. saying we’re so cooked, the passport isn’t coming, cancel trip. No need to fret. We got creative and utilized some overnight mail and the Pima County Clerk of the Supreme Court in Tucson, AZ, and are back on track. Send prayers FedEx and Allstate Passports live up to their guarantees.
Buffalo:
Learned PJ (private jet) etiquette: the 1st seat on the left is always the king’s throne for someone important. Don’t sit there unless you want to make a point and establish your alpha.
Pro tip: if there is a sideways couch, don’t have 2 people sit on it for takeoff unless its with a pretty girl, because it will throw you into them on takeoff #Physics. Don’t sit in backward facing seats, as you will be flung out at takeoff #Newtons1stLaw.
