The beach was not as busy as we thought it would be today…
I was a little bored today, so I made some mnml updates…
I started wearing my Apple Watch more over the last couple of weeks to track cardio rehab efforts.
I realized this morning I’ve become a Slave to the Rings™ yet again…
It’s time (unintended pun) to put it away and go back to wearing a “real” watch.
I made some mnml related updates to both the theme and archive by year plugin that alphabetizes archive page categories and adds better styling for the archive year select menu.
I’m giving Zen Browser another spin today…
The most effective way to change an organization, a company or a relationship is to identify the invisible centering forces and address them.
In a weird and much appreciated twist, I’m starting to get checks BACK from my health insurance for co-pays made thanks to hitting my max out-of-pocket for the year. I’ll take it! 🎉
Rocking a new theme on the blog based on mnml. I think I’m going to keep this one to myself for a while…
I reactivated my @hemisphericviews subscription this morning, this time as a global supporter. You should support them too if you don’t already. @canion, @jason and @martinfeld are doing the people’s work. I’ve held off listening to any episodes until now in fear of laughing too hard.
It turns out the longer walk route is not quite as long as I thought it was. I need to add another quarter mile to hit or exceed my target. Easy enough…
Starting a reread of David Allen’s Getting Things Done with the intention of tightening up my task management when I return to work. I always catch a new idea when I read it.
📷 After three months, it’s finally beer day!
Drats… I went for a longer and brisker walk than usual today, hoping to fully close a smart watch ring. Sadly, I somehow managed to pause the workout midway through, so no ring for me. That’s okay. I’ll make it up when we walk downtown for a beer and back. I know I got the work in…
The orientation for cardiac rehab went smoothly this morning. I’m already way beyond what most patients start at. The schedule is three times a week for the next six – though the program is really 12 weeks long. I should be in much better shape than I was pre-op by the time I head back to work. 💪🏻
It’s been a while since I mentioned it, so…
There are Micro.blog t-shirts available on Cotton Bureau if it’s something you’d like to get in on.
Get yours today!
Today’s special caffeine treat… A Flat White from IKYKY! Coffee Lab in Pacific City, downtown Huntington Beach.
A mnml teaser… How about a feature to display related posts based on category? Yeah? I thought so. Coming soon…
A new mnml theme update to v2.6.2 has been released that adds the new categories page “intro text” as well as refactoring some css styles. The update from your plugin page should be available soon, if it’s not already. Enjoy!
For fun, I decided to give GitHub CoPilot a chance to optimize some of mnml’s CSS this morning. It caught some things that needed fixing, but the code changes I let it make for me were not valid. I had revert, review its recommendations, and then manually change on my own.
Six weeks post-op today. That means real coffee and beer are back on the list of things allowed – but in moderation. This morning’s coffee was the best I think I’ve ever had. Tomorrow morning, we plan to walk to a local coffee shop for a REAL pour over. That should be heaven.
