Caught the extra time for Spain - Germany after our bike ride, and what a way to wrap up a tremendous contest. Phenomenal winner from Aitana!

Fun bike ride on the Children of the Sun trail with the kids today. Wish we could have gone further, but I had to change a tube and J had trouble on the hills with the bike she was riding.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds S3E2: Wedding Bell Blues 👍👍 Super fun Spock episode after the intense season opener. Love his growing friendship with La 'An.

Looking into changing our Xfinity plan. They're offering cheaper higher speed unlimited plans for 5 years guaranteed and bundling additional discounts that could save us money as well.

England 2 - 1 Italy – Lionesses find a way again thanks to goals from late subs Michelle Agyemang and Chloe Kelly.

It looks like all the rain we were supposed to get is moving southeast of Spokane and missing us completely. So I may need to water our yard after all.😐

TIL: A toasted French toast bagel with cream cheese is pretty heavenly. It still has a bunch of the flavor elements of Cinnabon that I love, just with way less sugar.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds S3E1: Hegemony (2) 👍👍 Banger conclusion to the cliffhanger that we ended last season with! So happy this series is back!

Malcolm Jamaal-Warner dying in a tragic swimming accident at age 54 is a real Gen-X mortality gut punch. The Cosby Show was such a staple of my childhood.

Overcast and sprinkling a little bit this morning. Looks like I'll be able to skip watering for the next couple of days.

Just had the interesting realization that for some blog-related tasks, specifically catching up on Week Notes, it may make more sense to collect them in Drafts and then migrate them into my Daily Log as I work on them.

Realized that Spotify has The Bullet Journal Method audiobook available to subscribers, so no reason not to revisit specific sections when I have new questions.

Seems like the Velocity have hit a bit of a rough patch since I started paying more attention and trying to watch their games. Kind of frustrating that they're already trailing Chatanooga 3 - 0 when I started watching.

Productive day so far. Finished the side fence, did some repair work on the outdoor faucets (more still necessary), cleaned a clogged drain in the master bedroom, ran a couple errands, and did some blog entry tasks. Still plenty more to do though!

It occurred to me today, while packing up the original damaged notebooks that Amazon sent me that a misaligned robot manipulator could have crushed the notebooks and packed them without knowing better.

Our HP Laserjet 1020 has never been fully supported in macOS on a commercial level, but it's always worked great once you sort out the correct drivers. Confirmed today that it still works with Sequoia, you just have to know how to extract specific stuff from a .pkg and know where to place it in your /Library folder.

I'm a fan of the Pilot G2 cartridge ink and roller feel, but the default body is pretty lacking. Already looking into compatible bodies on Amazon. Smootherpro has a few bolt action models that look promising.

Got in a quick morning run with 2 of the 3 girls this morning before it gets too hot. Freya pavement and curb improvements by the new North 40 are really coming along.

Not having any problems coming up with tasks for the bujo so far. Still thinking about how to manage some of my ongoing projects. Probably custom collections are the way to go.
📝 JUL 17 2025 23:04
Productive night working on my bujo system. Looking forward to figuring out some more custom collections to do some run training planning and logging.

Received my replacement notebooks from Amazon yesterday and started setting up my first paper bullet journal, but it was pretty late in the day so I didn't finish. Looking forward to finishing up today.

Glad I wore shorts today for all the cross-campus computer deployment I've been doing today. Three more to go.
