Mar 18, 2024
I had forgot to turn off one alarm so I got woken up at about 6.20 which was an hour early. Once I realised my mistake I turned everything off and laid down again for about an hour. I was at my desk around 7.40 or so. I had a lot to do given I had not done super lot the previous week. I had reviews to do, and e-mails. At about 9 we left and dropped off Frida and then drove to Penrith for an appointment. That was delayed but I did code review and whatnot while waiting. I met with the dr and left and came home. At home it was back to work. I had lunch with Jessica and we went for a quick walk. I was back again at ten to one. I was in meetings for a big part of the afternoon. I wrapped up my day at about four, having done 8h30m (on account of short lunch, but including the 60min appointment). We had afternoon tea. After fika I walked down to the village to get some things for dinner and steps. I came home and worked on the laundry. After dinner it was normal evening routine until bed.

We all slept in today, I got up shortly after the eight news. After breakfast we got everyone dressed and ready. We had morning tea. After tea I started work in the shower. Jessica took Sofia down to the plaza I was home working in the shower. Jessica came home and we had lunch. After lunch I set Frida to make Chocolateballs which was good. I sanded some wood to ready it for painting. We moved stuff out of wardrobes and generally continued our home chores. Jessica picked up Sofia and we had afternoon tea together. After fika I walked over to granny to try to fix the issue with Paramount+ and the fetch.. It is failing because poor software, very frustrating. I failed. I came home and we had dinner. After dinner it was normal evening routine until bed.

I slept until about 5 and then snoozed on and off until about 8. We got up and had breakfast. After breakfast we wandered over to granny for morning tea and also help with their Christmas gift. Due to stupid technical reasons we couldn't complete it. We came home and had lunch. After lunch we put handles on the cupboards. We then drove to Bunnings and bought a few bits and pieces. We had fika while out. We came home and I hung laundry and shaved and shortly after it was time to make dinner. After dinner I spoke with farmor and farfar. From there it was normal evening routine.

I got up and was on the 6.45 train into the office. At the office it was breakfast and then town-hall. I did not attend the town hall in person but listened and did some of the simpler reviews while I was listening. After that it was a little bit more work before "coffee" (which meant cookie for me) and then demos. After demos we had team lunch, after team lunch I paired with Martin, for the rest of the day. I left the office at about ten to four having done 8h of work. I did not have it in me to run for the 16.03 so I was on the 16.17 train home. I was really quite tired by now. I played OpenTTD on the train home. At home it was normal evening routine, really.

I got up and was at the station before 6.45, but the train was delayed. Today of all days when I needed to be in at a specific time. I still got in by 8 but a bit later. I had breakfast and we then walked to Martin place and caught a train to Bondi Junction. From there we walked to the charity we were supporting. We arrived there and there was a bit of a wait. Once it started were supposed to cook 6x50 meals. Not all groups ended up reaching 50 meals. We did not. It was fairly hard work, it has been a long time since I've been in a commercial kitchen. We cooked away and by about 12 we were all done. From there we walked to Martin place again. I was a bit low here, and while I had something I did not have enough. I got low on the way there and on the train I was fairly "out" Sam and Matt handled the situation very well and not much later I was back in action. At the office we had lunch and then it was just afternoon stuff. I felt crap all afternoon as I had been low and rose rapidly and ate a bit too much and took not quite enough. I left the office shortly after four having done 8h of work. I made the 16.31 train home. I was tired on the train so I just played. At home it was normal evening routine until bed.

I got up and was on the 6.45 train again. I was tired and snoozed to about Strathfield (like in the before times!). At work it was breakfast and then on with the day. I had a busy day. It was lots of social things happening. I paired with Jemma a fair amount. I helped Yingran a little bit. I spoke with Ben H about some things. We had lunch. We had a short stay in the lunch room before we came down and had a longer post-lunch tea (but still within the allocated lunch hour). At one thirty it was an AMA (Ask Me Anything). After that it was time for a social event, with trivia and arcade games and whatnot. It was good. From there we went to Redfern for some pinball. It was also good. I was on the 19.18 train home, I was quite tired. On the train I just played open TTD. At home it was normal evening routine, but I was late so had missed a good part of it.

I had trouble falling asleep last night, so I was quite tired in the morning. I still managed to get up and make the 6.45 train. It was a bit late though. In the office it was more of the same as yesterday. It was socialising and general work. We had lunch in the office and then tea and then more work. We had tea late in the afternoon and then before long I needed to go to make my train. I took the townhall on the train. It was unusually bad, not sure if lots of people were using the internet or just had bad reception. Either way. I was on the 16.47 train home. I had done 8h15 in the office and another 45m townhall on the train taking the day total to 9h of work. I came home and it was normal evening routine for us.

I got up and was on the 6.45 train from Glenbrook. It went well all the way to the City and I went to the office. I found a desk and had breakfast. After breakfast I moved to our designated area. I had a day mostly doing stuff with people. I did move on some of my things but overall it was mostly doing things with other people. It was good. We had lunch, and all that. I wrapped up my day at about four having done eight hours of work, and then did another half hour of boardgames taking the day total to 8h40m. I met Joey at 16.30ish and we went for a wander and a talk. It was good. I was on the 17.31 train home. On the train I just played OpenTTD as it is the game I've got on the laptop. I came home and had dinner and then normal evening routine.

I got up around eight and had breakfast and got started. Around nine we had morning tea. After tea we assembled more furniture. With the one done I made Semlor. With them rising we had lunch. Jessica had assembled one of the remaining pieces while I baked so after lunch we finished it. After that it was anchoring and such. It took much longer than we would have liked but by dinner they were all anchored to the wall and we had one door on, so that was good. I also re-installed the main computer. Sadly making the switch from Mageia to Fedora. Fedora is good, but Mageia is more.. better in some regards. After that it was just normal evening routine until bed.

Mar 9, 2024
We slept to about 8 or so. After breakfast and that we went to granny for morning tea. We came home from there and started assembling furniture. We had a break for lunch and then continued with the next one. I made mandelmassa and we continued. We had afternoon tea, and after fika we.. continued. We stopped for the evening and I made dinner. After dinner it was parents talking as usual. After that it was usual evening routine. Not a very exciting day but we got lots of stuff assembled.
