October 27th, 2016 | Halloween II

An Ironman Halloween.
This boy is dressed as Doraemon. A famous Japanese magna character.
Even Ironman is not allowed to wear shoes in the classroom.

Kaohsiung.Taiwan.

Thursday. Foggy. 27°c.

6:00 a.m. Alex was up early as usual. Had his 230ml of milk and he’s off.

8:00 a.m. Dropped Alexander into daycare. We were surprised to see him walk into the office and go directly to his classroom. It was funny to watch him waddling along.

9:00 a.m. Vacuum and mopped the floor.

10:00 a.m. Complied a list of future electronic circuits I will attempt to create with a components list.

12:00 p.m. Scrambled eggs on toast for lunch and a cappuccino coffee. Ahhh.

1:30 p.m. Charged up my battery packs for an old Sony DSLR.camera I have. I’m going to use it to take some photos today at work for Halloween. My boss was unable to get any yesterday. The amateur photographer who was assisting her yesterday failed to get any good shots. She was very disappointed. So today I will take my camera and get some good shots for her.

3:00 p.m. Left for Tainan.

4:45 p.m. Arrived at work ready for another day of Ironman Halloween fun.

7:00 p.m. Finished work and headed home. Before I arrived home I stopped by the electronics store and purchased a few more items. Just before I finished Chia called me to get some meat from Carrefour. She needed some sliced pork for a ‘hotpot’ dinner. Hotpot is very popular in Taiwan. Basically people sit around a table with a boiling pot of soup in the center and cook strips of meat and vegetables in the boiling broth. Very good for winter. Although it’s not winter now of course.

10:00 p.m. Finally got some more ‘me time’ and sat down to put together my third breadboard electronic project. Tonight I successfully made an audio circuit that produces an adjustable wave form noise. Sounds a bit like an old fashioned radio changing frequencies from high to low. Very interesting.

1:00 a.m. That 3rd project kept me very occupied. Didn’t realize it was so late. Time for bed!
