New coffee: Palmyra Estate, Panama roasted by Quarter Horse Coffee with tasting notes of Caramel, Raisin, and Picnic bar โ˜•๏ธ

New book arrived yesterday. The first in a new series from an author Iโ€™ve not read before. Always enjoy a fantasy novel. ๐Ÿ“š

Went into the office for the first time since the pandemic began. It was good to do before Iโ€™m required to go back in, but I much prefer working from home.

Started time blocking my tasks in the calendar this week, itโ€™s been quite effective. I feel like Iโ€™m actually moving projects forward again.

Spent the afternoon working through some wireframes for a new feature. Typically things only started to come together right at the end of my work day. At least I have some clarity of thought to pick it up again in the morning. ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿปโ€๐Ÿ’ป

Ordered some rubbing alcohol today to give cleaning the iPad magic keyboard another go. Wishful thinking? Maybe, but itโ€™s worth a shot.

Decided to move my micro style posts from my blog to Micro.blog. I’ll make all the versions on philbowell.com private for the time being.

Anyone have any suggestions for Bluetooth headsets for use on Teams? Fed up of the wires that my work issues Dell headset uses.

My OnMail invitation came through so I set up a free account. Not sure whether to point my email at it to give it a try or notโ€ฆ

Decided to give the dock on the bottom ago on my Mac. Been a dock on the left guy for so long that it might not last long.

It seems operation fox keyboard has not worked. Time to start a fund to buy a replacement magic keyboard. Sigh.

Watching the Formula E. They are racing on a proper circuit, albeit a modified version, which has always been my issue with it. Iโ€™m not a fan of the street circuits theyโ€™ve alway raced on. Would be good to see them race on an F1 track.

iPad keyboard seems to be mostly recovered. The space bar could do with a bit more cleaning I think, but I might see if it eases up over time. If I can stand it being mushy for a bit.

All the effected keys are off and cleaned. Giving everything a once over again and then reassembly begins. Really hope it works.

Operation rescue iPad magic keyboard is underway.

I spilt iced tea on my iPad magic keyboard a couple of days ago and now I have a mushy space bar. Probably from the sugar. Hints on cleaning it? Can you take the key caps off?

Discovered today that the Kindle app on iOS gives you stats on your reading. Interesting to look back at my past habits and see the current streak.

My iPad is rapidly becoming my favourite computer. Used Keynote in anger today and actually enjoyed building a slide deck for the first time in my life. Excellent piece of software.

Something seems to have gone wrong today. I’ve had two meetings and they’ve both been fairly productiveโ€ฆ If only everyday could be like this.
