Shirts
January 22, 2019. I went into the office today and while I got some work done my throat bothered me quite a bit - the offices are very dry this time of year. These are Andrea's shirts in our closet. https://flic.kr/p/QCArHT

Frozen Rose
January 20, 2019. This is a frozen rose bush as seen from the bathroom window. The snow continued through the day along with brutally cold temperatures. I amused myself by building a GitHub-based website in Node (which was really an exercise in Node ro... -
Storm
January 19, 2019. The storm hit this evening. I stayed indoors all day and did basically nothing (though I did take a nap). https://flic.kr/p/2emV1Qz -
Geraniums
January 5, 2019. Spent the Saturday working on an Electron RSS reader. Again, the code on the Udemy course was corrupted. I recreated it, but something doesn't work. Bleah. These are the geraniums in the kitchen, still surviving. https://flic.kr/p/2e1a... -
Bathroom Tile
January 4, 2019. I'm still in deep focus mode studying Electron for the holidays. So the only photo for today is this one of the tile on the bathroom floor. I've spent enough time studying it, surely it deserves inclusion in the photo album. https://fl... -
Eagle Moon
December 3. I bought this lithograph by Roy Henry Vickers at an art shop in Metrotown in 1990 when I was in Vancouver - yes, it is the same trip when I attended the Connectivism conference. I also attended a CFS conference that week, stayed in New West... -
Mark Stone
December 23, 2018. We discovered today that it is impossible to find a car to rent on Christmas Eve. So we'll be spending the next couple of days at home. This is the Mark Stone t-shirt that was a giveaway at the Senators game we attended. It was good ... -
Catching Up
December 24, 2018. I'm the sort of person who gets really immersed in what I am doing and forget to do other things. That's been the case with my E-Learning 3.0 course, which completely captured my imagination, and while I was (mostly) taking my photos... -
Dinner Plate
December 15, 2018. This is the plate I eat supper on every day. It's actually a shallow bowl. My supper consists of a piece of fish (tuna or cod) and some vegetables (peas, these days). https://flic.kr/p/RDF23C -
Pinwheel
December 20, 2018. Andrea has been picking up her baking skills recently and this was absolutely delicious. It also filled the house with the smell of fresh baking. https://flic.kr/p/Q2ndmt -
Polly in a Box
December 19, 2018. Polly actually fits completely in this box, but she raises her head when I go to take a photo. https://flic.kr/p/2dLWzee -
A Tuft of Grass
December 12, 2018. Some days when I'm in all day coding and such the photos get pretty random. Like today. I made a lot of progress on the RSS viewer and badge awarding system and the end is in view. I've had the time and space recently to devote mysel... -
Portal
December 11, 2018. This is a view from No Man's Sky, a game I'm still playing several years after it came out. Those who panned it on its first release would eb astonished to see how it has grown. I find it a really relaxing way to spend an hour or so ... -
Lentil Soup
December 5, 2018. This was extra food, after supper, because I was extra-hungry. Spent the day working on aspects of the course, including an interview with Pete Forsyth. Right now I'm trying to make the harvest-read-post workflow more efficient, in or... -
These Eyes
December 4, 2018. This is some street art I bought while in Toronto last month. The sheen is from the covering. Today was one of those days where I wasn't very productive - dabbled with some code, did a but of writing, got the module on community start... -
Geranium
December 2, 2018. I spent my Sunday writing a detailed article on the Badgr API. It might not have been the most useful article I've ever written, but it was a lot of fun to work though and write. The result is that I didn't have time for anything else... -
Looking In
November 30, 2018. I went downstairs for my morning shower, walked through the bathroom door, and saw the neighbour cat staring intently within. No idea why. Sidenote: a perk of living in the country: bathroom windows you don't need to cover up. The da... -
Polly Saying Goodbye
November 29, 2018. Any time I leave the house I do down the stairs into the garage. Polly has learned that if she comes over and sticks her head through the slats then I'll stop and pet her on the way out. Since cats love ritual, this has become a ritu... -
Nightstand
November 25, 2018. I spent the entire day working on my 'Resources' article, which in the end I was pretty pleased with. This left no time even for things like taking photos, so here is a nightstand pic. Coffee cup, reading light, and CPAP machine (bec... -
The Homestead
November 22, 2018. It's dark when I get home at the end of the day, but with the lights on and a full moon in the background the house seems warm and appealing. It's a unique house, with a lot of character. I spent the day working on blockchain stuff a... -
Ready for the Big Game
November 17, 2018. I have y RedBlacks hat and scarf on, and I bought a new heavy coat and boots so I'm ready for the weather tomorrow. Bring on the TiCats. https://flic.kr/p/2cYJMdp -
Our German Stars
November 16, 2018. I worked from home today because of the snowstorm and got the last of the harvesting and publishing issues worked out (I hope). These stars are in our front window and come from Germany - I wasn't invited back to Online Educa Berlin ... -
Speeding Train
November 15, 2018. I spent the day working on identity and harvesting, creating a video about digital keys. Lots of picky work today. This is a bad photo of the train going by our house. https://flic.kr/p/2abMo3G -
Cake
November 9, 2018. This is another one of Andrea's creations, a nice piece of cake, my reward for braving the snow driving home from the office. Spent the day preparing slides for an Intro to Blockchain talk. https://flic.kr/p/2a3cWeG -
Frost
November 8, 2018. Back home, working from the home office, getting caught up on email and doing an interview for the course. I meant to do more but got distracted responding to emails for office-related stuff. https://flic.kr/p/P3xBrt -
Tarte
October 20, 2018. While I was working today Andrea baked this quince tarte (which was a very detailed process). It was delicious. Me, I spent the day working on the E-Learning course. https://flic.kr/p/Qdfkt3 -
Fog
October 11, 2018. I had a late evening and darkness was falling through the fog on the drive home, but I still managed to take a side road and capture the essence. Fog was also a good metaphor for the day, a day that did not go even remotely as planned... -
Geranium
October 8, 2018. I spent the entire day - a holiday! - working on my E-Learning 3.0 course. Here it is , still a work in progress. We also brought in the geraniums this weekend. This one in particular is inside for its second winter. It had a rough sum... -
Water
October 6, 2018. Today I spent all day - a Saturday! - writing for my upcoming course. I got the bulk of the synopsis text done (this will also be the basis for future work). Now it's taking shape! The year of research is coming together. This is well-... -
String
March 30, 2018. Lexi insists on playing with string - "it's always string time" - even at the age of 12 or so. So I make sure to take the time to play with her. The rest of the day I spent writing 'Critical Thinking for Educators'. https://flic.kr/p/25...
