I need a break, and it is coming, this weekend is another 4 day weekend with a bit of a twist. I am not running a 5k on July 4th. Parkrun will not be holding an event, there is a hot dog run but I was too late to sign up for it. I need the rest anyway.
Also this weekend is the weekend I convert my firewall from pfsense to opnsense.

Had another power outage, and I am in of a couple things that made this power outage frustrating.
First off, I am in between firewall moves, so my firewall was virtualized and not set to auto start.
Another frustrating thing was that I was close to finishing a hard drive burn in.
Was a short weekend for me so having my day interrupted to do the generator was… actually that was kind of fun.
Mental note, dont forget to choke the generator before trying to power it on, and if you flood it, wait. Not sure of this is true for a propane tank but it did work.
Also it was too dark to make it worthwhile to set up the solar panels.
Finally there was a road blockage that directed traffic closer to my home.
Another thing was that one of the battery banks was not charged. That was frustrating.
One silver lining was my wife and I did not want to stay home in the dark so we went to the casino buffet at Snoqualmie. Got a free coupon. Funny thing was that the zepbound did beat my urge to eat.
It is a good thing.

Finally got a kickstart for Fedora 44 making rebuilds easy. A few weird quirks but looks to be ok for now. I downloaded the entire 44 x86_64 repo locally for a reboot.
Also PR’d again on the parkrun
Wow did I feel good, in a PR mood.
Also the biggest news, wife is back, everything back together.

My wife returns form overseas tomorrow. Less than 24 hours from now we will be reunited.
I do have bit more cleaning to do, but what I have done so far was significant.
Will do the final bedroom cleaning and tomorrow will work on living room and laundry.
Had a really good workout today, run was ok, but overall felt strong.

Today it was cool enough for my to function. Caught up on some server work.
I can do meetings and documentation in the bedroom, but the engineering work is done in my office.
In my evening walk it was also a little wet.
Weight: 316.8
I felt like I would have more time, but time is burning fast.
Still need to clean the house, looking to do a fast job.
Ran for an hour on the treadmill today, another workout pushing myself.
Completed 12000+ steps today as well as a new PR for weight.
Weight: 312.0
Oh boy was it hot today, been cooking all day. Needed to stay hydrated all day.
All my hard drives are overheated.
Been camping in my bedroom with AC.
Just got back from walking and it was cooler outside but it is 10PM at night.
Relief is on the way though.

Today I once again got a lot done.
I cleaned my office by dumping things into the living room. I think whatever I bring back in must go in the closet.
I finally installed my new opnsense firewall and got an OS on it.
Another thing I installed was the Ikea Skagis board
I need to print some mounts for it.
Also this plant is blooming, rarely does
I couldn’t run today, felt so tired and slow.
But when I hit the weights, there was some strength coming back.
I think lunch and dinner slowed me down.

Summer is officially here, it is kind of hot here.
Also it is Father’s Day.
I celebrated by sleeping in, probably tomorrow too.
Last night I was up late reorg some cables. When I went to bed morning seemed to be peaking.
Going to have a bunch of things tomorrow. Probably will sleep early too.
Also tried to get a workout database going. If got time will take another shot tomorrow.

Been organizing the bedroom desk that I have been on. Still got a significant work. Overall there is a lot of work around the house. Food needs to be cooked, clothes washed, stuff put away. Going to hit that the next two days.
I told kids about a place called Sanoya Restaurant, looks like they closed May 1 of this year.
Earned it today, ran in my new shoes, I think it was holding me back. I did not PR but I think I can train in them better and get faster.
