7/24/2019 – PT, work….

Wednesday

Corey Smith, physical therapist and sports trainer who I have worked with at CMH PT on Fish and Game Rd. several times over the past three years, showed up for a private session. I wrote him earlier about what I felt my objectives are:

Here are a few thoughts about what I’d like to accomplish.
 
Get into an every other day morning routine of exercises focused on balance, flexibility and strength. 30-40 minutes would be sustainable. I want to use a floor mat and simple tools like rubber bands and small weights. Develop a set of routines that will hit the major components of the body in a rotating cycle.
 
Do these objectives fit with your private practice? I might guess that I would need three or four sessions to get started. Then occasional tune-ups. Obviously I am open to your direction and expert advice.
 
So we got right to it. We used the exercise bands I had purchased earlier and he brought along a couple of extra toys, Indian club and exercise balls. I took notes and we took pictures so that I can remember what to do. I turned these into a document:
Now I just have to actually carry through on this exercise program.
 

UTMH

Met with Seth to prep for the meeting at 3pm with David and Cameron. Two topics: Troy Web and Ole Breuning (see Friday 7/19/2019). But, first, Seth needed to talk about his conflicted feelings about spending so much time at this point in his life endlessly working on things that may not interest him so much any more….. This is a conversation we seem to repeat regularly now. Then we got to the Troy Web mess. David and Seth confabulate the need to move on in development work with the earlier contractual commitments they made to TW for a share of revenue. At any rate I got Seth to come up with a framing statement to contain the discussion. This will be especially valuable for Cameron who is not up on all the details.

Met for an hour withSeth, David, and Cameron. Finally resolved to pay TW what UTMH owes under the contract and initiate the SaaS development project. Also, importantly from my perspective, they agreed to retain Michael Queralt and the Nicaraguan guys for the work on a future state map. David never brought up Ole. Don’t think he forgot. He and Seth are avoiding the unproductive situation with Ole. Perhaps there is also a deeper relationship between Ole and Cameron than I know about. I kept quiet.

5/17/2019 – work, work, dinner out

Friday

UTMH – met with Pauline Decarmo about collaterals printing. Notes to new sales people. Re-wrote the Tinkering with Capitalism essay. Mostly re-arranging text and eliminating extraneous material.

Telecon with Troy Web. 25 minutes wasted on project management tasks they should know how to do and be doing them. Then rambling discussions, frequently amongst themselves about various trifles. We have to get rid of them. They are expensive but not contributing.

Met with Michael Queralt with David and Seth. 3 hour discussion. He is very experienced technologist and entrepreneur. Next steps may be interesting. He is knowledgeable of the healthcare marketplace. Nice guy to boot.

Spoke with Tony Kieraldo about renewing the utmhealthcare.com website.

Sent note to Linda McNutt and Mike from Kach Inc. about the repairs to the front lattice and gate.

Wrote note to Sam and Dan Sapoznick about blockchain technology mentioned by Queralt.

Walked up to Swoon for dinner. Big crowd at bar when we walked in. Gave up on sitting at the bar and sat at a table for dinner. Two Dewars and two dinners $85. Ole Breuning and Crystal Heinz came in. Ole and I spoke of UTMH matters. I told him that we had been stuck for twenty minutes on the name of a guy sitting at the bar . Finally recalled, Victor Amendola. Ole said, “It was a senior moment.” I corrected him, “It was a senior intermission.”


Karen noticed these fire connections with upside down medallions.

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.

Friday – 2/20/15

IMG_9035 2The cold is not ending. Temperature at 7am.

Met with Agi Clark at Cascades to explore possible modes for her to engage the library project. 90 minute discussion. She has owned a house in Taghkanic across the lake since 1976. Now living on Warren St. as an experiment. Background on the creative side of advertising. Not a committee person. interested in engaging the poorer parts of the community. Knows Joanie Hunt at Promise Neighborhood. Also spoke of the need to video everything we do. Perhaps get a high school student involved.

Talked with Seth about UTM. Disaster with Troy Web last week not managing Apple app licenses and loosing connection to the CMH app. New CMH website now in web developer slow down…… still spelling errors in the text. More about the aggravations with Angie Keefer. He also now had some nagging damage to right shoulder from a fall earlier in the winter.02202015-UTM-scrn grab

 


 

 Monday – Tuesday 2/2/15 – 2/3/15

imageimageimageSnow storm that was predicted to be 12 – 18 inches veered away to sea leaving us with 8 or so inches. Enough to cause trouble but nothing big. Boston gots lots. NYC not so much though they shut the city down in anticipation.

Lengthy UTM telecon with Seth, Troy Web and Jan. Way too much background grinding by Seth. Boring, excruciating. Very little gained from 1 1/2 hrs.

A snow day extending into Tuesday. We went for walks both days in snow. Nice crunching sounds.
