I finally feel like I’m starting to turn a corner with this lurgy thing. I’ll make sure I rest up over the weekend, hoping that by next week, it will be completely gone.
I migrated a few more images from my old blog to the Micro.blog, so my photos page looks better. I also added a now page and uses page.
Michael Wade reminds us about keeping a “Not Doing List”.
Common “Not Doing” projects involve physical exercise, connecting with old friends, volunteering for good causes, and writing thank you notes.
Great. Taken hold by the lurgy today.
I miss Twitter’s lists feature when I’m on Micro.blog, Instagram, and Threads. On Twitter, I had lists for a handful of topics that I looked at daily, such as the NFL, notebooks, people, and web development. It was nice to scroll through related content and change to something else.
Defaulting to Firefox as my browser again. I have noticed there’s better integration with the 1Password extension than there was in Safari. I always found 1Password’s extension inconsistent in Safari, and it usually took a while to appear and populate any form.
After a nightmare week in the Lang household, we were relieved to end on a high note with Ethan winning the Junior Club Championship at Fereneze Golf Club. Well done Ethan!
Big yin all set for today’s Junior Club Championship at Fereneze Golf Club. Weather is looking good and a lot better than last years downpour.
I came across this link on Hacker News this morning. Is this simply a switch to focus on the process instead of the outcome? I don’t know, but I do like the idea of changing goals to quests.
Also, on Hacker News, hat-tip to this comment.
Skipping next year's Techo
I’m almost entirely sure that I won’t be buying a Techo for next year.
This year’s Techo is mainly blank. Despite many attempts at using it daily, it’s mostly just been gathering dust on my desk, with only a dozen pages filled in at best. Last year’s Techo was also the same, largely blank. In fact, I remember binning last year’s Techo around November time after believing there was no point in holding onto a largely blank planner for the year.
This is just one of a few things I used to do but don’t anymore. Reading and sketching were two things I did almost daily a couple of years ago. I haven’t finished a book in a long time or sketched for nearly a year.
I would like to say it’s frustrating, and I would love to kickstart doing these things again. However, I look back at how long it’s been not doing them and decide it’s probably not worth starting if I’m just going to stop again.
