Still Enjoy Highschool Track

Even though I have no kids in high school, I still enjoy watching High School track, especially since my son’s friend was running.

He seemed to PR when we were there. He did well.

Didn’t do much otherwise in the day, watched a movie at home.

Watching Track as a Spectator

Watched a high school track meet as a spectator and not a parent. Kind of loess stress. Day was nice too. Really relaxing.

I did go to a specialist doctor today, cleared me of something I was worried about.

Not gonna lie, I was worried, and when I was cleared I needed a breather and watched the highschool meet.

Planning Molokai Hass Install

I am planning a Home Assistant install in the Molokai house at the end of the month, kind of interesting in the logistics. Getting a UPS there, planning the install, internet connectivity. I think it should be a blog all its own.

Slowly planning, need to get my vacation and flight in though.

Break In Emergency

Came across an idea where I can put something like money in to a 3D printed device where you would have to break in order to read it. Found these things which would go in a keychain.

There is a small hole on the opposite side where you would place money, and you would attach this to a keychain.

If you are ever in need of cash you would break open this for the cash.

Going to make one for the key chains for the cars.

Also been working on pihole a bit, looks like version 6 doesnt use an external web server anymore. Just wondering if I should force apache or just go with the built in web server.

Another thing is trying to get Windows 11 in a VM that was cloned. After playing with it a bit I think the issue is sysprep. Not going to pursue it much, most my VMs are Linux and I can treat windows ones as 1 offs.

Forgot to wear my fitbit during the day, gonna try and get at least 1000 steps.

Getting Older, Weekend Needed for Rest

Today, a Sunday, I got ahead of my tax filing for 2024. I usually do it the weekend before, but I got most of the things I need to file, all left are student expenses and stuff which Turbo Tax reports I need to complete.

But according to the numbers, we getting a small refund, which is good because we are not loaning out free money.

But the thing I want to mention is that I am finding the weekends is where I need my time back to rest. I did wake up at 7:30 did the dogs insulin and my taxes and went to bed at 9AM till 1PM.

Total I think I slept 10 hours.

Even though I have a desk job, I been burning me weekdays pretty hard.

Weekend arrives I want to rest.

More Lawn Fixing

Added a view more rolls of sod to our lawn. Unfortunately, looks like the batch we got did not have enough sun.

Hoping it will improve, sooner than later.

Cloning VMs

I primarily kickstart VMs when I build them, and I will probably continue on with this process for long term production machines.

But I sometimes need quick throw away machines. Recall it takes me 40 minutes to build a machine, need to cut that time down.

No Storm

Not complaining but a little disappointed, there was not storm, no hail. Very little lightening.

The problem is that people will no longer believe the weather report next time.

Cars are ok, no power outages.

Sitting safe.

Did hit gym today, seeing about hitting it 3 days a week. Did 30 minutes of treadmill.
