2024 Holiday Season Closure

 I began reading a new book called "Teach Your Kids to Code: A parent-friendly guide to python programming" by Bryson Payne from no starch press in San Francisco, and excited to run some of the programs. I downloaded Python, but the window to run the code in goes absent. Hopefully, there's no cringing moment later on this in regard to maintaining the health of my download history. 

I finished reading another book by Joe Schmit called "Silent Impact: Stories of influence through purpose, persistence, & passion" which is a local debut to me. The small town shop I purchased it in is mentioned in the book and is signed. I recall now that I just wanted to check the price but ended up buying it. Good read and motivator to continue pursuing a publishing of my own. 

The last 10K I did this year was with Appleton's and Miron Company's "Fox Valley Marathon" where I did a tribute to my late mother, in regard to Cancer Research and Treatment. It was amazing and I am looking forward to next year's race already!

During this year, I received my Robotics Certificate, survived ASP.NET MVC and Entity Framework and refueled my interest/ambition with C# and the .NET Framework, and best of all - I learned of a specialty to pursue as an Embedded Software Developer working with machines and environments for AI. 

Hopefully you're warm, safe, and enjoying the holiday spirit!
