Week 24 – 2025

09-06-2025 I took the weekend off of from thinking about moving over to Obsidian, and I think it helped. I slept a lot, and I've come back with back with fresh thinking. I'm working on organisation, and keeping connected things connected. 10-06-2025 Today I wrote my weekly progress post on my blog, but I'm wondering if it would be better…

What’s the score?

When I first started writing a blog back in 2005 I had no idea I'd still be writing it now. I thought it'd be a short-lived thing. I wouldn't stick to it. That would be the kind of thing I do. But here we are, thirteen years later. I've moved all my posts over from various other websites I've had…
Waves is gone

Waves is gone

My old blog, Waves, which used to be at the old domain of randomfury.co.uk, is no more. All the posts have been folded into this blog. It was a lovely place, if a bit quiet. I feel like I've written this a lot recently, but it was always more for me to cathartically write than for people to read. I'd…

Site update

I'm moving all the posts over from my old blog, and I'm doing it manually so i can fine tune them a little, for example making sure all their tags are relevant and consistent, they all conform to the correct category, and I'm seeing if they could be organised to make things a little easier to find. I've added some…

Nice day

Today feels a little bit like before Jake was born, back when I had unlimited free time. Man, I had such narrow perceptions of that unlimited free time. I have purpose and drive now. I thought I used to have it. Turns out I was wrong. No urgency. No haste. I'm just spending the day messing with this website, trying…

Keep myself honest

It's definitely useful to have this blog as a reminder, and in an effort to keep me honest and accountable for my forward momentum, I'm updating this blog on a semi-regular basis. A little renovation here and there is in order, and a recalibration of older posts is ongoing, as I filter out a lot of the irrelevant stuff like…

Fresh start

I think it is time for a fresh start. Time to draw a line under everything that has come before. You see, I have been pre-occupied with transferring everything from the old community website to this one before I can do anything else, but to be honest, I don't think anyone would notice if I never did. It was fifty…

Where to go from here?

When you hit rock bottom, they say you can see exactly how far you need to climb to get back to where you were. Sounds easy enough, but it's very foggy, and I'm not even sure if I'm going the right way. I hit rock bottom recently - I reached the end of a long, painful journey and stared into…

Missed opportunity?

It's how I kinda feel about not writing little updates every so often when Jake does something amazingly cute or has a major breakthrough (like standing up unaided for 12 seconds - so awesome). It would've been nice to have chronicled his growth, but would I have spent too much time writing about what he has done while missing the…
