Winter Solstice 2023

Shortest daylight of the year was today, based on this web site https://www.timeanddate.com/sun/usa/seattle

We got 8 hours 25 minutes and 25 seconds of daylight.

Tomorrow we will get 8 hours 25 minutes and 26 seconds of daylight.

Woohoo a whole second.

Just kidding, feels good though, knowing it will get brighter.

Still work day was long, no time for gym, but with that said, got a huge task done. Took months.

Didn’t know UPS store did passport photos, kind of pricey at $15.99 + tax. But wanted it done and NO issues. Followed the passport instructions to the T. Too late to ship it today but will ship it tomorrow for sure.

While I was at UPS store, returned a hard drive, it was too large. Needed 2.5″ instead of 3.5″

I suspect we will have a bunch of returns.

Deceptively Busy Day

Though today was going to be slow, but the morning was slammed with a moderate afternoon.

But here I am posting from work, looks like I am not going to get any workout in.

Thought I would be done by now.

Got another Lenovo node, this is going to replace an existing physical box.

I like the small out of the way size.

Eating Fruits

Maybe working on my diet can get me some weight loss. Need to get more fiber, so now will work on snacking on fruits.

Maybe it will balance me out, get the energy I need.

Getting full on fruits and veggies may be a new strategy I need to take.

Christmas Shopping

Dropped a lot of cash on shopping today.

Got some new shoes for myself, I think I needed them because my feet are hurting.

Taking a break today, but sleep and recovery is needed.

Body Sore All Over

Got my 10k steps in, but my body is all sore.

Slept well last night, but the sleep debt caught up.

Took a 4 hour “nap”

All signs of burnout.

Hopefully my sleep clock is back to normal.

Just barely cleared 350

Financial Planning 2024

Today was a little bit more than my finance Friday, I actually started carving out plans for 2024.

I got a bunch of more things to do, and also got non finance goals for 2024 as well.

A lot of those still require money though.

Hard Time Sleeping

My sleep schedule is still off, last night (or actually this morning) I woke up early and couldn’t go back to sleep.

I went to bed before midnight but woke up at 2AM itching on my legs.

Hoping I can sleep better tonight.

Watched my son’s swim meet today. My first of the season.

Home Server Flyer Document

Finally got most of the document for a flyer/brochure on using the M900 Lenovo.

Feels like a huge load off my back. Not only I have something for marketing, but a base for my book.

Finally, 3 days in a row under 350.
