Visiting the Museum of Flight

Today I was invited to the museum of flight. Talked to a gut regarding the SR71 but found out it is not an SR72 but an M21A12 or something like that.

I didn’t take a picture of it but I had this of the outside.

It was fun.

Back to the Workbook

I am going to try and commit to writing a page a day, at least till it reaches to something like 60 pages.

Anyway, I been so far behind in my book, and feel like I am starting to have time to write it.

At 1 page a day I think be winter break I will have something of substance.

Had a PT appointment today, I thought was last one but PT wanted another one.

Started on a few notes.

Closing Out XC Season

Team almost didn’t qualify for districts, but they did so there is 1 more race.

Still I had a talk with my son, looks like he made peace that he was not going to State.

But I am proud of him.

This also ends my involvment in XC until I have grand kids that run XC.

2 minutes too late

Today was an example of bad timing. I went to bed relatively early last night, but our dog is sick and woke us up. I helped him out but I lost some sleep which caused me to wake up late.

So I had a Dr appointment at 9AM and I left slightly after 8AM but traffic had me getting there at 9:05, within the time.

But google maps had me at the wrong location, so I was actually two minutes late.

This was a fine example of little things adding up to big things.

Anyway, I knew if I did not get this appointment things would have been severely shifted with my Dr appointment.

So I asked, and I waited, and waited.

I finally got in, Dr was kind enough to get me in during his lunch. But got in I did.

Trying Out NTFY

Giving a program called ntfy (short for notify) a try. It is a simple web server that allows for push notifications.

It works in conjunction with an app on a mobile device. So I can keep appraised of stuff going on.

Also looked into linode and cloudflare a bit.

Another Biopsy

Doctors took some more flesh from me today. I thought I could return to work but it just hurt too much.

Went to bed to try and escape the pain.

Network seems stable, all patched, need to audit make sure that is the case.

Purchased youtube premium, that is that path of least resistance. Wanted to be able to listen to you tube while I walked anyway.

Not looking forward to tomorrow.

Easier To Manage

Now that I have most of my Linux servers at Rocky 9, it will make it easier to patch.

I am going to give it a try, I think if I schedule it right I can patch weekly.

Going to give it a shot tonight.
