Just had a video interview for a position with a new company. A new ambulance company is taking over as the primary company for 911 calls in the area where I work. Wanted to make sure I had a good first impression with the lady conducting the interview. It seemed to go well too. Here's hoping it turns out well with everything.

I was given an amazing gift for Christmas from my wife and in-laws. The Lego set of the HMS "Endurance." If you're not familiar with this ship, she was the expedition ship of Sir Ernest Shackelton's voyage where his aim was to be the first to cross Antarctica from coast to coast. However, before they made landfall, the "Endurance" became trapped in ice and later sank. The mission the became one of survival. Sir Shackelton led his men to the uninhabited Elephant Island so they would at least be off the frozen sea. Then he and five others sailed one of the ship's lifeboats over 800 miles to seek rescue. The entire crew survived. Every year I choose a theme for the year rather than a New Years resolution. In 2026, my theme will be Endurance. This build and doing some research about Sir Shackelton and the "Endurance" helped me come to this decision. Through Endurance We Conquer. Shackelton family motto.

Today I have to take an agreement to clients for signing from a mediation I did last week. So I decided to wear: Johnston & Murphy brown jacket. Brooks Brothers white shirt. Hermes blue tie. Johnston & Murphy brown belt. Haggar blue trousers. Florsheim brown shoes. WOTD: Tissot Seastar 1000 SOTD: Masque Milano’s Hemingway. And NO pocket square.

Took the day off today. Burning up some PTO before the end of the year. Doing work around the house that I have not had time to do. Back to work tomorrow, and on the road to Albuquerque on Tuesday. - brown 1/4 pebble Bach golf pull over - Blue t-shirt - Light blue slim fit jeans - White tennis shoes.

Trying out some new layering. I hope you all enjoy.
