Borrowing a page from Derek Sivers, these are the things I’m focused on right now…
- Still living in our little beach hut near downtown Huntington Beach. We talk about selling one day, but I just don’t know. Even as whacky as HB can be, I love being less than a mile from the ocean.
-
Reading my way through the Harry Bosch Universe books in order thanks to my public library using the Libby app. My wife and I watched the series on Amazon and loved it. I’m currently reading The Last Coyote installment.
-
Rebuilding my cardio fitness post-CABG X4 (quadruple open heart bypass) surgery, with the goal of getting back on SoCal hiking trails. I do a brisk walk of at least a mile and a half every day. I’m feeling better than I have in 10 years.
-
Easing into my return to the office, working on delegating tasks to my direct reports and managing day to day stress better. So far, it’s working out.
-
Breaking the bass out and getting the hands back into shape again. Maybe I’ll find a band to play with, maybe I won’t. So far, the instrument has made it out of the closet and is leaning against the wall of my office, mocking me every day with a reminder it’s still there.
-
Making some final updates to my Micro.blog theme mnml to allow more flexibility when working with images. Once these are done, I think I’m going to put it down for a while (see next bullet).
-
Toying with the idea of moving from Micro.blog to a static Hugo site served on Cloudflare infrastructure. I want to keep my blog simple and Micro.blog is starting to add a lot of features I don’t need.
