I wrote something about depression. Any day can be Blue Monday

Sometimes it just clicks but I was fortunate with my first guess.

Reviewing some of my subscriptions that are up for renewal soon. Decided to have a look at the built in calendar app on macOS. Didnโt realise it had support for conference calls built in now, might be able to drop Fantastical now.
At the end of a long week an hour on the sofa reading The Return of the King was exactly what I needed. ๐

I got a yellow HomePod mini for Christmas, it arrived yesterday, and Iโm finding it really hard to resist making shortcuts to use with it when I should be working.

I really dislike the way businesses refer to people as resources. Four meetings today and everyone has said we need more resources to do something. They are people. You need more people to do it.

Discovered that iA Writer has the ability to publish to Micro.blog. Time to give it another go I think, itโs always been a nice writing experience and it also works with Hook according to the Hook documentation.

Thanks to Hook I’m finding myself looking at notes apps that play nicely with it. Obsidian is halfway there but Craft seems to be the most compatible.
My right AirPod seems to be dying. It struggles to connect and then when it does loses it’s connection, anyone else experienced this?
Bought a bird feeder to stick on a window in my flat. I hope it doesnโt take too long to attract some birds.
Ordered one the new Chipolo Card Spots. I’ve wanted Apple to release an AirTag like this, but I don’t think it’s going to happen since they made a wallet with it built in. This will do for me.
Followed the film with a couple of cocktails. Not normally my drink of choice but they were fun.

Went to see the new Matrix film last night. Enjoyed it ok the whole, but it was a bit of a weird one. Very obsessed with referencing the earlier films. ๐ฟ
I tried to add a micro pub endpoint to my Jekyll blog. Got to the stage of being able to sign in with a client but it wonโt post. Thatโs a problem for another day.
I can confirm counselling in 2022 is no easier than it was in 2021 or 2020. ๐

Found myself listening to the Dune soundtrack on repeat today. Really good for working too. ๐ต
All the Christmas decorations are down, the new year is well and truly underway now. Since itโs no longer used for Tree lights I now have a spare smart plug, any ideas of how to put it to use?
Straight into a whole day workshop on the first day back to work is a brutal way to start the year. My brain is not awake enough for this.
Really impressed with how well Ulysses works with Micro.blog. Hadnโt realised you could update posts youโve already published.
Iโve been thinking about how to approach the idea of New Yearโs resolutions. Iโm not a fan of them, mine have usually failed by the end of the 3rd week of the year, so Iโm focusing on developing some habits through small changes. My Mum sent me this article this morning and I really liked some ideas in it. Worth a read if youโre looking for some New Year’s inspiration.
Happy new year micro bloggers. I hope 2022 is full of joy and happiness. Itโs been a difficult couple of years, letโs hope the next one is a little kinder. God bless.
Forest are unexpectedly on Sky Sports this afternoon after being one of only 2 games in the Championship not to be called off because of a Covid outbreak. Settling in to watch it with my Dad. โฝ๏ธ
Any Fastmail users out there tried this email app? Itโs the first one Iโve found that uses JMAP.

Well this is my Christmas reading sorted! Enjoyed the TV show on Prime so looking forward to reading this.

I wonder if there is a way to post to Micro.blog from Obsidian. ๐ค

I’ve found myself watching Star Wars the last couple of days. I wanted to watch a series of films and with no streaming access to the Potters they seemed like the best bet.
