This post is a part of the 2015 New Beer Every Day Beer Diary Challenge, #ottbeerdiary. Over the course of 2015, I will be trying a new beer every day. Please read the background in the link above, and enjoy reading about the most recently tasted beers below. If you’d like to join the challenge as well, let me know in the comments below, and be sure to check out Grown-up Travel Guide and his #grownupbeerdiary, where Andy Higgs came up with the diary format in use below. You can catch up on all of our posts as part of the challenge under the tag ottbeerdiary.
From December 1 through December 24, I’m going to try to use a Christmas Beer for each day of Advent as part of my #ottadvent15 2015 Advent Calendar. Follow along with the tag ottadvent15.
Day 349: December 15, 2015
Diary entry:
An early start today, as I had an open agenda this morning.
Wait. What? Why early then?
I got hit with a pile of documents to be reviewed for Thursday, and luckily with an open agenda this morning, I was able to buckle down and read through a couple hundred pages. Not the most exciting reading, but it had to be done. And I was able to give my feedback so hopefully these documents are all able to be approved on Thursday.
And then, from reading to writing, as I’m also trying to complete my final revisions on the Business Information Plan I’ve been working on for a few months. Amazing, as I completed the first 65-page draft in a few hours back in September, but it’s taken three months to have it reviewed and make the adjustments suggested by others. But that collaboration for you 🙂
In the afternoon, I had one important meeting on project three. This project is going to be pretty huge in 2016…
My last meeting of the day was back to project two. Also very important…
