It's funny how some days are better than others.

Take today, for instance. It was an easy day at work, just a run down to Sussex with some wheat seed for a farm and back again.

An easy day. So why am I feeling low? Something feels off. It's busier tomorrow, unsure how that will make me feel. I just wanna write and make music. That day can't come soon enough.

A few things worth mentioning.

  • I’ve ditched GrapheneOS and gone back to Android on my Pixel 8 Pro. Too many problems.
  • Spencer and I are making great progress on our first proper EDM track.
  • My shoulders are now hurting, which is new.
  • The End of Oak Street is a wonderful movie. 

That’s all for now.

There’s a growing list of projects appearing at home at the moment.

In no particular order (yet).

  • Weatherproof Garden Shed
  • Reconfigure/redecorate Karta’s bedroom
  • Clutch change and full service on Rhona’s Toyota
  • Clutch change and full service on Karta’s Skoda
  • New bespoke garden gate

It’s all achievable with enough time and money.

ChatGPT 6 Astra seems to be a large step forward. 

I've spent several hours testing how I can utilise the new features in my daily workflow. It has potential!


#103 - The Latent Negativity Paradox

I know I’ve mentioned this before, and it keeps bugging me. 

Maybe it’s my mind playing tricks on me; maybe it’s something else? Either way, I can’t shake this feeling that all is not well in my world, which is surprising. I have everything I have ever wanted, bar retirement. I like to think that my health is improving despite the challenges.
 
My job is, well, just that. It’s a means to an end. I’ve been there for almost a year now, and there have been ups and downs, but generally speaking, it’s okay. I’m home before 5 every day, don’t work weekends, and only have to make a 15-minute commute each day. So, it’s not bad. I could probably do with a bit more in the way of salary, but I’m not that desperate.
