3/12/2019 – work, Hudson Creative, tennis

Tuesday

UTMH – Spoke with Sam M about his sales work. Progress is slow. Asked him to send a weekly summary. Team meeting at 11 was chaotic and filled with re-hashings of the mess created during the install of Wexelman and Darby on the test server. Bad decision to do that. Gayle has to go. She is abrasive, pig headed, just plain difficult.

Spoke with Seth further about Gayle. Then Brandon about his taking over implementation and training.

More research about self-directed learning.

Got Chad WAeckler reconnected to various Hudson-Creative accounts,

David A. called about Gayle.

Tennis at Total Tennis. Played 3 sets with a guy named Paul as partner. Won all three sets. Served well. Mixed results on volleys.

Friday- 12/23/2016

Yarn bombed decorations outside Verdigris. Done by the Thursday evening knitting group.

Woke up late. 7:45. Breakfast at Tanzys. Talked about the virtual DOG. Packed up one of sets of pictures from the last show. Looked for pop up layer or note plugin for WordPress. Paid bills. Sent summons from taxi company for last May’s accident to Travelers. Also created projected P&L for Brigid Dorsey. Sent note to Chad Weckler withdrawing from active participation in the makerspace projects, Hudson-Creative. Relieved about that.

Plenty of leftover beef stew.

Tuesday – 11/8/2016 – Election Day

Meeting with Chad Weckler at CEDC and Michael Tucker about commercial kitchens and Hudson-Creative. Arrived at the end of the meeting due to my calendar entry screw up. Tucker is loud and mostly about his own opinions. 

Had coffee afterward with Chad. He told me of space offered to us at 3rd and State. 

Drove to NYC. Arrived about 2pm. At MET Breuer – old Whitney. Diane Arbus and Kerry James Marshall. image

Drove over to PioPio restaurant for Nyla’s 14th birthday party. Andrea, Noah, & John too. Very cheery time. 11082016-nyla-bday-1

Back to Hudson in time to watch some of the election returns at Spotty Dog. Went home at about 10. I went to sleep about 11. Woke up at 3am to discover a headline from NYTimes announcing Trump’s victory. Despite my lack of enthusiasm for Hilary C I am distressed. 

Thursday – 2/26/2015

Worked on UTM. Spent time on phone with Tim Varney at Troy Web on new iTunes Connect provisioning system. Still very unclear how this works. Also cleaned up more of the investor presentation. Drove to UAlbany. Jan is sick so he attended most of the meeting by telecon.

Talked with Anita Harris for first time since late November. Karen had a photographer in for a portfolio review so I met Chad Weckler at Verdigris to talk about the makerspace project. Next steps, check in that we are on the same page philosophically.

1 North Front St. Hudson - home of Chamber of Commerce and HDC

Hudson Business Coalition meeting at Hudson Dev Corp at Firehouse. Two hours long because there were new people, including conspicuously Russ Gibson, co-owner of Croft House and Barlow Hotel.  He reported on B&B matters. Interesting support for Lodging Tax proposal with some useful caveats, including spending some of the receipts on marketing Hudson.

Hudson-Walking-Guide-2015Also spent time on Hudson Walking Guide – its future. Set up a strategy committee to come up with overall marketing direction. SJ Williams volunteered to organize this.

Got a chance to talk with Chad Weckler about the Etsy /CEDC support for a makerspace. We will collaborate further. He has a proposal ready to go to Galvan focused on the Van Kleeck Tire building.

Went to gym.

Tuesday – 12/6/2011

Met with prospects who turned out to have two businesses. I will probably work with the husband on a drop off food business focused on weekenders.

Then to Chamber of Commerce for meeting of the Hudson Business Coalition. Dave Colby, Alan Coon, Chad Weckler, and Laurie Selden all in attendance. Talked about rejuvenating the Signage work.

Finished up work on Taste of the Caribbean business plan.

Talked with Danny Brundage about eCornell job opportunity.

Got sub from deli. Took nap. Very full.

Walked up to Taste of the Caribbean to deliver business plan to Ann Marie Furbert. Raining.

Ran into David Drake. Now I will have to go to Trivia Night.

Played trivia with Laurie. Still a very strange person. Complicated family life..

Got General Tsos chicken on the way home.

NO ENTRIES beyond this one.
