I love these

So that was August 17, 2022. That means I basically need to go back through my photo library because I am completely nose-blind to my own life.

- The mill was almost ready to fire and then... complications ensued. It's a good thing! More on that in a minute.

- I'm now an honest-to-god radio DJ

- I converted my studio to Atmos just in time to have my first Atmos project fall through

- I taught myself jewelry enamel

- I bought my first set of reading glasses (gawd)

- I designed my first circuit and got it printed out, let's see if it works

- I designed the world's smallest 5th axis

- We opened a satellite clinic 30 miles away

- We now have 11 employees

- We got a grant that allowed us to give out 10% employee bonuses

- I spent $1200 electing Kamala Harris and it didn't do shit

- I bought an architecturally significant mansion a thousand yards from the birth center, which has a thousand square foot shop, a 600 square foot gym, a swimming pool and landscaping designed by a dude with a wikipedia article. I have put in $80k in HVAC, $90k in electrical, $100k in plumbing and a secret staircase. I spend a lot of time digging.

- I am back in watchmaking classes and managed to rebuild a 6497 to chronometer spec my first try out.
