Fri:
Worked on the second device, completing the test on that feature to my satisfaction. Well, I say satisfaction but I would love to actually sign it with my CA so I could trust it and not get any warnings. But you do what you can.
Also got directions on how to make the cert with someone else's CA so I did that. Still worked. Again, with errors as I'm not on that domain and can't make my browser trust that cert. I mean I could, sure. But what I don't need is another cert clogging up my PC.
He did not answer my question about the template so I could make my own. His CA didn't seem to use a template either. Very odd. On mine there's a dropdown so I can choose the template. On his not so much. Strange.
Got a small haul, so I'll at least have a few things to bring my parents. Lots of breakfast stuff which is mine though. All mine.
Was just reading, didn't do any work on the book.
Did the shopping, got Heather a gift, went to the bank. Saw my parents.
Came back here, put stuff away.
Then game. We don't know if we've solved the painter issue or the kid issue. Trying to solve that one went pretty bad, Neil got possessed. We have to wait until the next night at least to tell. If they come back, = no solve. But Sean "promises" the next adventure will be our last one there (and no game next week?) so maybe they really are solved.
Now we're stuck in the temple and our fears are coming for us. So much for there not being any traps inside. To be fair the person that said that was only guessing.

Sat:
Got rid of the latest mouse.
Berries, still a good number of them out there. They seem nice too, big.
Make Ice Cream, realized hey I better do it while I can, right? It'll be autumn in like a week or two, right? Back to being frozen all the time? Need a shirt, another shirt, and then a sweater?
Cleaning, my parents are coming over.
Ate lunch, watched a movie.
Looking into my garbage disposal, I think one of the cutters is physically loose. My father later confirmed. It'll have to be replaced, I mean maybe technically it could be dismantaled and repaired? Technically. But who would?
Eating some ice cream. Added carmel sauce to it this time. Made a big difference. Didn't freeze very hard, I have to eat it out of the popsicle mold with a knife. Ah, what a life.
Parents - Avatar the way of water. Now he just needs to visit a tribe underground and a tribe near a volcano and he can truly be the master of the four elements. What do you mean I'm thinking of some other avatar? How many can there be?
Then xbox with the others

Sun:
Got up a bit late as was playing xbox.
Made up for it by cutting the front lawn first thing.
Started the next piece of the print. The next shortest one, I may order more filament before I do another. So hard to say how much is left and how much is really used. I mean the cura program does give a weight estimate but how am I supposed to weigh the stuff. It's fine one way or the other I guess. Even if I did order another if I started it with this spool it would either finish or be ruined I don't think you can really change it mid-stream.
Picking berries, now have a container and a half, and still more to come.
Some yard work, still finding strangle vine all over. That stuff grows very well. Because of course it does. Still very buggy out there.
Ate lunch.
Print is proceeding well.
Played some FF7 Remake.
Print success. Gluing now. Only 2 more parts to go. (20 hours)
Had dinner.
Got ready for tomorrow.
One call, a lady from last week I never reached. Or maybe two weeks ago now? Still didn't. Said she would be there tonight too. Liar.

Mon:
Nothing much to do work wise. No haul, but maybe in the next two days as the stuff is dated 7/11.

Did reading.

Finished the next chapter. Didn't get time to proofread it though. That can come tomorrow.

Did look into why a device was serving a 404 page now. Very odd situation. An NVM init did the job strangely enough.

Cloudy, but no rain yet.

Came home, picked berries. They're pretty big! Still more to come, I'm almost at 2 containers, but not quite.

Checked sites, had dinner. Fixed a few things in the optional rules I noticed.

Got ready for tomorrow.

Tues:
Morning meeting, not very long.
Then a small haul. Yay!
Helped Christina, she was having trouble after an upgrade getting to a device. This was my fault, from my cert nonsense from before. Whoops! I fixed it for her. Sorry!
Only other work related thing was sending USB port information to Joe. Pictures and how many ports were on each machine. Who knows why.

Finished the last chapter from yesterday, started the next.

Picked berries when I got home, I now have two full containers. Yum.

Checked sites, videos.

Finally got hold of the lady. She wants to switch to Greenlight so I need to help her take care of the email situation. She's not the most disorganized person I've worked for but she's... a normal person I've worked for. And she wants Sunday. Neat. So much for doing another print I guess. Maybe I can get it done Saturday? But I think we're doing- nope that's the 22nd we're doing game. No problem.

Wed:
Another fairly tame day at work today. I got a project relating to wifi from Gina. Hate wifi so much. Cords were good enough for my grandfather and they're good enough for- wait, my grandfather never even used a computer. Huh. Anyway, something about when wifi is down you can't log in as admin? Stupid, but okay I'll check it for you. So that's tomorrow.

But today? Wrote the next chapter. Only got through two rooms of the dungeon. I'll get through more next time, right? Hope so.
No meetings.
Yeah, not much at all, really.

Came back here, picked more berries. Not many, just a smattering in the small container.

Checked sites, ate dinner.

Did some reading.

One call, well, three calls. A lady not far from work. First her machine wouldn't turn on. Then it would. Then she's talking about email address that can't possibly exist. Then my remote client wouldn't open, then it did. I'm just going over there tomorrow. I don't need to be to my sister's house until much later.

Got ready for tomorrow.

Thurs:
Some work for today. And meetings. Had a meeting with a guy about XDM, hope I'm not steering him wrong.

The usual status meeting.

Got the MED driver, no real change but signing it. I installed it, made sure it worked. That should be good enough.

Also looked at the wifi thing for Gina, it too worked just fine. As I expected.

Food area is still empty, it's been empty a few days. Very odd. How am I to get hauls when there is no food in there to "expire?"

Worked on the next chapter.

Went to second work. Hey, she actually did have a problem. I turned the machine on, it seemed fine, but swiftly started to degrade in performance. This was quite odd to me so I looked at task manger. It was running at .3Ghz or so. Uh, that can't be right. I cracked the side expecting a dusty fan or something but the CPU fan wasn't even spinning. Turns out, one of the wires had gotten wrapped around it, doesn't work so good that way! I swiftly turned it off, untangled the wire, thankfully the fan still spins. The heatsink itself also seemed really loose. I tightened it back up. Ran fine after that. Figured out her email, moved her address book over to gmail. General stuff.
Got dolls?

Came back here, picked berries. Checked sites. Still have about an hour before I have to leave for my sister's house.

I'm back. Sean wants to do xbox so I'm uploading this now.

See you next week!
