Last Week: Things Are Moving Fast

everyday life 1 Minute

How can I be so busy when I do not even have a full-time job? It’s a mystery, but that’s what is happening!

A quick week’s recap.

Monday – the Neighbor Night at the Chicago Architectural Center:

Tuesday:

Morning biking, intense conference prep, and PG DATA org committee meeting:

Wednesday:

Checking out a second Amorino location (it’s in the Rookery Building, beautiful, cozy, no lines! Loved it!) Joint meetup with the Chicago Ruby User Group, went great!

Thursday:

Clinic escort in the morning and CSO concert in the evening (Klaus Makela one more time).

Friday:

Multiple meetings on different topics, frantic packing until the time I had to leave for the airport, and a cherry on top: I forgot my passport and had to return home from Belmont! At that point, I had no choice but to get an Uber, which I try to avoid unless there is absolutely no other option, but there was no other option. And I spent more time in the security line than getting to the airport!

My name is Henrietta (Hettie) Dombrovskaya. I was born in Saint-Petersburg, Russian (actually, back then – Leningrad, USSR) in 1963, and immigrated to the United States in 1996. I love Saint Petersburg, the city I was born and raised in, and I think it’s one of the most beautiful places in the world. Similarly (but differently) I love Chicago, and can’t imagine myself moving somewhere else in the observable future. I have three children, Igor, Vlad and Anna, all adults living on their own, and one (so far) granddaughter Nadia. I also believe that my children are the best thing that happened in my life. As for my professional life, I am working in the field of Information Technologies. When I was twenty, I’ve declared that the databases are the coolest thing invented and that I want to do them for the rest of my life. Thirty plus years later, I still believe it’s true, and still, believe that the databases are the best. These two statements together imply that I think a person can have it all, and indeed, I think so! Keep reading my journals to find out how I did it.
