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. 🍿
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 won’t post. That’s a problem for another day.
My time for work playlist
Saturday, January 8, 2022
Over the years I’ve developed a few strategies to help get me in to the right frame of mind to work. One of the best ones is my time for work playlist, I put it on when I need to focus and it never fails to get me into the right state to focus on a project. I’ve worked out that the best albums for me to work to are film soundtracks.
I can confirm counselling in 2022 is no easier than it was in 2021 or 2020. 😞

Pretty much smashed Wordle today!
Found myself listening to the Dune soundtrack on repeat today. Really good for working too. 🎵
All the Christmas decorations are down, the new year is well and truly underway now. Since it’s 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. Hadn’t realised you could update posts you’ve already published.
I’ve been thinking about how to approach the idea of New Year’s resolutions. I’m not a fan of them, mine have usually failed by the end of the 3rd week of the year, so I’m 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 you’re looking for some New Year’s inspiration.
I want my hobby back
Sunday, January 2, 2022
One thing I want to do more of this year it to write. Back when I started blogging in 2005 or 2006 I used to post everyday, often more than once. It might have been the novelty of being able to write something and have it appear on the internet for people to read that made it easier. It might also have been that the blogging community was in full force at the time, but one thing is for certain it was my hobby and I enjoyed it.
Happy new year micro bloggers. I hope 2022 is full of joy and happiness. It’s been a difficult couple of years, let’s 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. ⚽️
Any Fastmail users out there tried this email app? It’s the first one I’ve found that uses JMAP.
Well this is my Christmas reading sorted! Enjoyed the TV show on Prime so looking forward to reading this.
Happy Christmas micro bloggers!

I wonder if there is a way to post to Micro.blog from Obsidian. 🤔
Boosted 💉
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.
