Weekend too short but great moments

Another weekend come and gone! Cant believe it went so fast , was it even really here?. I feel like that has been said a quadrillion times in the English language. However, even with all that feeling of rush also comes with a realization that it did bring forth many wonderful things. A nice couch sit down with the family to watch “Falcon and the Winter Soldier” with kids that would soon leave the nest. I got so accompany my beautiful wife on ther real estate adventures and see some truly clean and well decorated houses., love that HGTV feel!  I got to sit on a hammock and read the intrepid and varied history of Nintendo and their rise to power. I really enjoyed that while every competitor was going for compute speed and fancy chips, Nintendo (much like Apple) decided to go for the human element, what hardware can give better visuals or engaging sound at the crazy low budget we have. Can we design the hardware around the human experience rather than Hz and Bits? And boy o boy did it pay off for them. All the West made machines Atari, Coleco, Intellivision, and even the beloved C-64 could never compare to the closed loop polished  and targeted look of the Famicom Family Computer games with the locked in cartridges and seal of “quality”.  It is no wonder they took over. Anyhow the weekend was full of unexpected DevOps work , cause clouds fail as they must. Also chores and chores that list on and on. But it is the little things, like walking with my wife in afternoon daylight on a Sunday afternoon that really made me thank the Lord and the Universe for this gift we call life!
