  • Turning my tiny power box closet into a tiny network closet... nerd stuff
  • Saturday Data Day
  • Cabin tech
  • lil plane GPS
  • My first 3 vehicles were cheaper than this small device that simply helps my wife (with MS) walk normally. I'm super thankful that this technology exists, but also angry about how cost prohibitive it is for folks less fortunate.
  • Ready for a night ride
  • Good morning
  • Mini network closet phase 2: added a shelf for the modem, router, nuc, and smarthome bridges
  • Mini network closet phase 1: mounted patches panel, switch, and surge protector
  • Lights mounted... it looks bad from this angle, but the frosted diffuser really helped a ton.
  • oooo, prettty lights.
  • Got the low voltage wire extensions shrink wrapped and ran through the wall...
  • I later realized that the slightly older versions of hue light strips had a coupler that wasn't hard wired into the light strip. I happened to have 2 of the older ones, so, I found a company that made extensions for them and went that route. This way, if my hue ever dies, I still just have simple wires running through my wall and can easily switch things out.
  • Chuck made us this stainless steel DM skyline. I threw an LED behind it for fun. It looks cool.
  • Got a lil nest sensor
  • This is a great travel speaker. Even for showers.
  • This is a Mac Mini that simply runs a fireplace visualization on a TV.
  • This thing is darling
  • Sunday Fun Day
  • February suddenly took a turn for the better.

  • In 4th grade I was tested for ADD (twice) after my teacher reported that I rarely had all 4 legs of my chair/desk combo on the ground... I have a feeling that my nephew, currently taking online classes, is destined for great things.
