Blog ≫ 2025 ≫ AND done the study sockets too
I have properly automated study sockets again!
I'm ordering another one of those extension leads 1 soon so I can have even more micro-managing control over the devices there. I could group them together a bit more, if I have power to the laptop I probably want power to the external monitor too, but not necessarily.
This ticks off one of my long standing todo items which I also added to the new year's resolutions. If you just look at the top half of them I'm doing well so far:
- Dryanuary - ongoing
- Five days a week not drinking - see above, no drinking at all so far this year
- Runuary - also ongoing and not missed a day
- Purge / declutter - some progress got a huge charity shop pile to go out
- Replace the socket in the study - actually done
- New running shoes - also actually done
Forget about the other big jobs for now. Oh and also forget about the old todo list. Have I abandoned all those? Should I move those things into the chart below?
We went out for a walk this afternoon, really just for Clare's step count. She went out early with the boys when I was out at the DIY shop, but just she and I went out again, along the canal and back along Princes Parade. We see that new cafe restaurant type thing Good Thymes is open now. There was no-one in there though and there's no menu outside. Menu is online somewhere but the sort of places I don't look at. We'll give it a go soon, hope it is good.
Light cloud and a gentle breeze, 1 - 4℃.
