Renew
How's it going? It's been nearly two months since I've last posted. I don't really have much to talk about here, but I do like keeping this somewhat up to date. Here's how things are going at the moment.
Went to a concert with my best fr...
Setbacks
Life sure does have a way of making you feel a bit down, eh?
That's where I'm at right now. I've absolutely fallen back into the trap of feeling like I'm not quite in control again and wondering where the time is going. I've found myself staring into ...
Building
Having a bit of a problem with figuring out what I want to make. I used to be much more creative than I am now. Mostly drawing. I was never particularly great at it but it was always a passion of mine, right up until I finished high school. I don't know what happ...
We bought a 2026 Honda Civic Sport Hybrid
I mentioned it in my most recent /now update, but we just recently bought a new car! It's a 2026 Honda Civic Sport Hybrid Sedan in Rallye Red (say that three times fast). This is our first brand new car and to be honest, that does...
I'm Back!
Yeah so like, I haven't updated this in awhile. I've been away dealing with some health struggles with some of our pets. On the whole, everyone is doing ok now, but such is life with aging pets unfortunately.
I've been kept pretty busy on the work fr...
10 pointless facts about me
Saw posts from Manu and Kev, originally started by Dave and figured I would throw my hat in too, this seems fun!
Do you floss your teeth?
Not nearly as much as my dentist would prefer, that's for sure. Although ...
New Keyboard
I got myself a new keyboard yesterday! If you are interested in seeing what it looks likes on their website, you can find that here. I've been using split keyboards for a number of years now but never anything like this. As I type this, I'm using the...
Homelab Setup
In a direct contradiction to my last post, I figured I would write a post about what I use in my current homelab setup. This is inspired by a post I saw by Ian O'Byrne about why he setup his own, and why you should set yours up too! Definitely worth...
Abandoning Tech
Well, maybe that title isn't quite right.
Changing how I use tech
There, that's better!
This year has been a tough one for me, both personally and professionally. I've spent way more time than I would really lik...
Do it for fun
It's easy to get caught up in the daily grind. Do you have a hobby that people keep telling you that you should monetize? Here's a novel idea - just keep doing it for fun. Hobbies don't have to be all about earning money. It's enough if you just enj...
Reading
Over the last year or so, I've read more books than I have in quite a long time. To be clear, none of these books are Earth-shatterig masterpieces, but all the same, they let my mind wander and explore new worlds. I've been trying to keep this spark alive...
New Project: PlainFeeder
A plain text RSS Feed Reader, now a work in progress.
Oh boy, just what we needed. ANOTHER RSS feed reader. What can I say, I'm a glutton for punishment I guess. Anyway, I've started work on a new project that I'm affectionate...
Learning Vim
For the longest time, I've used your typical text/code editors. Think
things like Atom (fare thee
well), VS Code, vscodium, Sublime, Notepad++. If you can name it,
I've probably considered it or tried it in some fo...
Review: Split Fiction
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
Recently, my wife and I bought Split
Fiction for the Xbox (yes I know I linked the Steam page, fight
me). We were huge fans of It Takes Two, which was...
Over the past year or so, I’ve been making an intentional effort to simplify things in my life. Not all of it has been successful, but as with most things in life, it’s a journey. There are ups and downs, but what matters is whether forward progress is being made to reach th...
