CABG X4 Day 12 - Today is probably the best I’ve felt so far. I’m beginning to get good sleep without the need for pain killers and can shower on my own. Staph infection in my left calf is nearly gone, with ankle swelling down enough to make walking tolerable again. Daily naps are glorious.

Stoic thought of the day… “A man is as miserable as he thinks he is.” - Seneca.
It’s amazing what some good, uninterrupted sleep can do for you. I felt like crap all day yesterday. But feel about 85% “normal” today.
I’d like to take a moment to say thanks to the following people who shared their encouragement, prayers, good thoughts, and positive mojo through what has been hands-down the biggest challenge I’ve ever faced in my life.
No rest for the wicked as they say… I just pushed out a simple mnml update that fixes newsletter dates displaying improperly. Version 2.5.9 should show up in your plugins sooner or later. See this help.micro.blog thread for how to reset your newsletter template.
Alright, y’all… Came through it like a boss. Sore as heck, but I’m feeling okay. If all goes well, home Friday afternoon. For those wondering, got a quadruple bypass. ❤️🩹 But I’ve got a new lease on life.
📷 Day 30: Solitude.
Alright, y’all. Tomorrow’s photo challenge has been queued. It’s time for this dude to go offline and head outside to be thankful for a beautiful day and the many blessing I have. I’ll be back in a couple of weeks. ✌🏻❤️
Of course, me being me, I’m wrestling with the urge of spinning up a self-hosted, single-user Mastodon instance again. I’m kind of missing it. I think I’ll sit on that idea for a month and see how I feel about it at the end of July.
📷 Day 29: Winding.
📷 Day 28: Ephemeral.
I just spun up a virtualization of macOS 26 Tahoe with UTM. I have to say I’m not as taken aback by the new look as I thought I was going to be. There are still some things to explore, however…
📷 Day 27: Collective.
Today is my last day in the office for almost three months. I’ve turned over all my duties to others and cleaned the junk out of my desk. In a way, it almost feels like I’m leaving to go somewhere else. It’s kind of a strange feeling.
📷 Day 26: Bridge.
I just brewed a cup of coffee without putting my mug under the filter. Nice. Clearly, I’m a little distracted today…
I’ve begun cross-posting to my original Mastodon.social account again. If you want to connect over there, give a follow. Yeah, I just couldn’t stay away from Mastodon…
📷 Day 25: Decay.
📷 Day 24: Bloom.
