Getting Good Sleep

I have slept 7+ hours for two days in a row, I don’t, fitbit says I was asleep from about 3AM to 11AMm so 8 hours but it says I was awake 1 hour 9 min. Doesn’t feel like it, but I do feel refreshed.

Making excellent progress in the garage. Place is looking good.

Three Days In, Progress

This is good, I only had a little less than 3000 steps at 9PM and I got it done, 10k steps and 10 floors.

I think tomorrow morning I am going to start with a lap so I don’t cram everything in to the evening.

Living room is finally clearing up, can move again but still really unsightly.

Garage is feeling organized, couple more hours put in and it should be good.

While in the garage I tried using 12 volts on an arduino, it heated up and I am not sure if it burned up. Need to check it out with a real connections. But it was previously at 5V and I dont think that was enough.

Weight is definitely trending down.

Lowering The Bar

Need to restart somewhere, so I am working on doing 10,000 steps and 10 floors.

I got it done today, so lets see if I can keep it up.

Another thing is the midnight snacking, that stops.

Giving myself 100 days

New Start

Last day of the month, tomorrow going to start seriously working out again.

Still debating if I should do 10 floors and 10k steps a day.

But working out in the gym and swimming should suffice.

Got my JBOD up and everything is connected and works. Unfortunately one of the sleds is damaged.

New Shoes May Do It

Got new shoes today, and new inserts. Maybe that is what I needed.

Something like this may be a trigger to get me moving.

Been tired a lot lately, also haven’t been really sleeping long.

Got a lot done

Accomplished most of what I set out to do. But I did not finish cleaning the garage.

I got the table done, but I lost some steam.

So house looks like a disaster zone although I got a lot done.

Need a break, gonna sleep well tonight.

Time To Get Serious

Wow weighed in pretty high today, I suspect tomorrow I will be heavy again too.

I need to focus on losing weight. But this weekend I committed to getting a list of things done. One of them was to clean garage and I knew that was going to take a lot out of me.

But I did take care of some other things, I replaced batteries on a lock, helped my son move boxes and a huge one, get storage on my ESXi host installed.

That is huge because that signals that I am ready to go into production.

But that is another goal. I really want to get trough this weekend with the last few things to do.

Then I will charge into weight loss and migration.

Shrimp Trip 2023

Went to get shrimp today, in the past we left at 9:20PM and got there by 11 at opening, but this is Saturday so we should have left at 8:45.

But we did get there in time and had a decent order.

Was really tired though, when got home. Needed some sleep.

Building New Front End to Nagios

Found this new front end called statusengine to nagios.

I am looking at it and trying to see how to install it on Rocky 9.

Like this kind of stuff, it pushes me to learn new things.
