As we await the snowpocalypse, I want give to kudos to Kroger Delivery. I had plenty of food before the storm, but wanted to replenish some of my favorites. Kroger Delivery delivered everything I wanted a little while ago, except bing cherries, which I can happily live without. Great service!
I just registered for PyCon US, the largest and longest-running gathering of Python enthusiasts in the world. It will be great to get back again. It is a powerful opportunity to learn, network, and have fun. Unfortunately, I had to cancel last year due to illness.
It has been another great year for me at JPMorganChase. Taking a moment to say, I am grateful. 🙏

Kicked back watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade with family while my brother-in-law makes fresh pasta for our pasta bar tonight (I've already had three turkey dinners!). Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate! #Blessed
After ~8 years on the DEFNA Board, I stepped down earlier this year. What a nice surprise to stumble across this thank you from the board this week! ❤️ www.defna.org/defna-board-...
Unfortunately, the Northern Lights tonight were nothing like they were last night. Following up on my post yesterday, here are my three favorite photos I took last night on the spur of the moment.
Finally got the chance to see the Northern Lights in the Midwest. Saw a couple of posts about it in real time and ran outside. I was not disappointed.

The one on the plane is so good! Last year, there were three smaller ones, but this one is better imo. I do kind of like the longhorn though.

DjangoCon US is approaching fast. Who is going?!
The Python documentary truly brought a tear to my eye by the end. It's a programming language and so much more.
"I just want other women to have role models. I hope I can help inspire them and help them. These opportunities belong to you, too." Loved seeing Mariatta's interview in the Python documentary. ❤️
This Python documentary has everything. Even my employer got a mention as having helped inspire the creation of data science tools.
And Zope might have saved Python. Wow!
