Oil from the ground! Fancy that!

Monday.  2nd.  Not backdating this for a change ;)  Ok day.  Spent entirely too long trying to figure out what was causing a spike in traffic somewhere.  Really really need to relearn Splunk.  Saw eight of my birds at lunch!  Leftovers for dinner (Dinner Winner with veggies from the club night).  Managed to label 285 photos.  Found some new episodes of Air Crash investigations on Disney+, and blogged the week before last while watching an episode.  

Tuesday.  Ok day.  Lots of looking at traffic graphs and discovering new (and bad) things about one of our firewalls.  Managed to label 50 photos before dinner (turkey burnt ends and veggies from the club).  Ended up labelling 199 photos all up, and blogged last week while watching another episode of Air Crash Investigations.

Wednesday.  Restless sleep.  I like *going* to sleep on my belly, but my neck still hurts a bit from my Covid jab, but that's no so bad, I get more pain later after I wake up with an aching lower back.  If I lie on my sides my hands will go numb which is super annoying, and if I lie on my back I can't breathe.  So I really can't win.  Only managed to finish yesterday's slide fixup scanning (story of my life this week).  Decent day though - learnt *heaps* about our network, and organised a bunch more traffic graphs.  Leftovers for dinner.  Only managed to label 54 photos though.  Another episde of Air Crash Investigations while blogging the penne bake.

Thursday.  Another day of working on traffic graphs and dashboards.  

Friday.  Too busy dealing with All The Things to play with Splunk like I really wanted to.  Popped out for an impromptu Herbert's lunch with Tony and the Chrises.

Shared some loaded fries and skewers with Tony

Leftover pizza for dinner (fried of course, but a little over done because we used the bigger pan to fit it all in, but we don't have a big lid to cover it).  Watched In the Heart of the Sea, essentially about the sinking of the Essex and the survival story of the crew.  I felt quite tense watching most of it.  Pretty well done.  Interesting and quite tragic story too.

Saturday.  Fairly quiet day.  Did a bit of stuff around the house and some jigsaw (making agonisingly slow progress on that).  For dinner I used up some of the mince from the other week - heated with a leftover half punnet of tomato paste, some Worcestershire sauce, half a litre of stock with about a third to a half a packet of macaraoni, some leftover peas/corn/carrots, and cheese.  Basically my own One Pan Dinner.

Watched When a Man Loves a Woman in the evening.  I'd seen this a long time ago, but Stu hadn't seen it.  Quite a powerful movie.

Sunday.  Another quiet day pottering around the house.  Finished last week's photo labelling, worked on the jigsaw, did a bit of fish tank stuff.

Notice the symmetry in the completedness.  Every time I get a piece in from one side, I find the same shaped piece and put it in on the other side too.  

Dumbo progress

Dinner tonight will be the rest of the leftover mince with a whole heap of roasted veggies.
