It was cold in the morning and dark at night when I went to walk.
I did get my steps done though, I thought I was going to walk at work, but there wasn’t much distance to walk.
At work I had some class on safety, saw many people I have not seen for a while, it was nice.

Second day making 10,000 steps and 10 floors.
Slowly but curely.
Going to spend the rest of the month trying to get 10k steps and 10 floors each day. In October I will start tracking food.
Kind of beat, but I think cause of the walking, so I should sleep well.

Moved mostly everything to new server. This is my first post from that server. I can actually shut off the old web server and I should be functional.
Just 1 more CentOS 7 VM then I move to physical and cloud servers.
First real game for the Seahawks, they suck lost 13 to 30 against the RAMS.
But I did get my steps in pretty early, so it is all good.

Mental note to self, don’t make changes close to midnight if you didn’t post your blog.
Although I got it done and was able to post before midnight, there was a lot of meat missing from my post.
Actually rebuild the web server and the main drupal sight is on the new Rocky 9 server. It is behind a new nginx proxy as well to slowly move stuff (child sites) to the new server.
Since I am just retiring the server and not doing a real upgrade, some things will be lost.
The big challenge was getting the proxy right, it kind of works.
If I can upgrade my site to drupal 10 I will keep the main site on drupal.

Not sure what I screwed up, but I changed my WordPress setting to a temp site.
So doing a really quick post. Cause it is almost midnight.
Stuff is complex.
Thought wordpress would be easy, well is is easy to screw up.

Kind of worn out with my personal network. Did not do much with it, was at doctor’s in the morning but was tired after my first meeting.
After hanging in there at work, I needed a break and took a nap.
One of those days just needed something different, this time some rest.

Need to adopt so new habits,
First one, if something is down on the network and is needed, but some sort of monitor that alerts on it, normally nagios, but it can be something else like home assistant.
Second one, if you did something cool, document it, maybe something as recording history to a date stamped file.
Finally, when doing something new to a server, see if ansible will do it for you.
Youngest child today ran the last Cross country two mile of my kids. Kind of sad. Good news is that was a FR (family record) for a cross country mile.
He was mildly disappointed he was not the #1 senior, but he was really close to the #1.

For this website any, not the blog though.
In a few days you will see a remake of the main parts of this website.
Part of the push to get rid of C7 boxes. One of the things I am intentionally doing is getting rid of drupal. Going all wordpress.
Fridge seems OK, gonna give it another two days before putting everything back in.

Fixed the fridge today and then the Kitchen Fridge broke.
Hoping the fridge is an easy fix. Only a few years old
The old fridge lasted over a decade.
Tomorrow will see if the freezer holds its cold.
Today was Labor Day, usually I would make the title Labor Day 2023, but wanted to express the struggle of ongoing repairs.

Just got 2 days of a three day weekend out of the way, I am happy that I also got Monday off.
Getting my lab rolling, tomorrow hopefully more breakthroughs.
But I am having a problem with MATE and guacamole, and my research points to it being a MATE issue.
Anyway another way is to simply go to local logins. Not sure yet will see.
Ansible is working great for me, starting to speed up builds.
