still bathing in the happy medium.

ok, so i might not have the domain name anymore, maybe i should have asked for more money, but maybe if i did that would have never given me those wonderful years together with my daughter that we had, so much form and functions we did in the city back then, many times to reflect and be happy about, smile is wide across my face this morning!

i’ve been constantly blessed with seeing her beaming, unabashed love and determination year after year as she grows into her teen years once more. I’m sure all dads feel the same, we are incredibly lucky to go along on this journey with our loved ones. i’m always blessed about it for sure.

i woke up this morning really spritely, like something had shifted, some self imposed roadblock i had put there until something had changed, like an ifttt statement waiting on a function to complete before it could write another recording a google spreadsheet. It’s cleared now, opportunity and options unfurled like a carpet needing airing.

breakfast is sparse this morning, a chicken sandwich oddly and a coffee, although i have milk and could go the breakfast route i’m pretty much out for a little while, i’ve got alpen but i’m just not feeling bird cage healthy stuff this morning — maybe if i had some decent bio yogurt that would be the play but for now we make do with rough and ready.

i’m half expecting another “circuit breaker” or mini lockdown to happen in the next few weeks, i think we are gonna see a little rise again in the numbers, the graphs, those things that we can see that control us, up and down, red and green candle like (we won’t talk about crypto for the moment for obvious reasons!) this “triple mutant” scary title is in the mix — it would be foolish to ignore thou because of what we have seen in india. My heart goes out to their families.

step count is going up which i’m happy about, managing now to actually step through and do the things that i’ve been wanting to do for a while, early starts, exercise, intensive, almost like going to a gym but without the prices, i think if i can lock this down for the next month then it’s gonna become a new routine which is freaking awesome. I’m ready.

In combination with the exercise i’ve also started a brand new multivitamin setup and i’m even looking at nootropics, stuff for joints (not the smoking kind) and general immunity. of course it could all just be a little psychosomatic on my behalf but i actually feel like even this last week it’s added a level of clarity above the cloudiness which has been helpful to push thou.

dogged determination is still determination if the result turns out.

coming up to the end of this month, feel things i’d like to get locked in between now and next month, i’d like to get the old mac repaired, pull of the screen, new fast drive in there, new fan, new heatsink, heck if i can work it out even a new chip ideally, might take me a week but i think it’s a good project to have — i’ve got a use for it if i can make it work and it’s reliable, it’s gonna be a perfect little frontend to plex for instance and maybe i can run some chia plots on it.

other than that, my mind is hungry for downsizing, while people are trying to get out and overseas for holidays, i’m trying to get the shite out of my cupboards and into the tip. Like, i seriously need to re-configured the way i eat, sleep and build projects, too many half hearted attempt and almost burrowing away stuff into places where “one day i’ll need this” kinda vibes that have to change, i need the flexibility and uncoupling of movement at a moments notice.

of course this is all designed to make any future short or long term transitions easier, when i need to get to places, when i need to swap my mobility for a bigger van, all that stuff ya know.

right, think i’m all caught up, body and mind is telling me to stop gassing and get on with it, time to close this post up, finish this coffee, get a lovely stretch in and get sprinting for a few hours before the transatlantic connection comes online and the coastline is bathed in sunday sunshine, i think we are going on a little video stream trip anyway soon :)

have a fantastic sundaze.
