More progress?

Even without a real workstation, I continue to make progress. I have gotten my wiki setup on the server. I used the copy of Atlassian Confluence I purchased during there donation week. $5 is a deal for a five user license.

I have also started using Calibre and reorganizing my books. I refreshed my book repository on my prs-505 to be smaller and more targeted.

My workouts are improving too, and I plan to see the trainer this week. I need to get protein first thing in the morning. I need to completely improve my diet. 

I am getting anxious about paying off my credit cards. I will suddenly have money to tool with. I'm thinking a boe bot is a good start, but I'm not sure.

Last night I ordered the ram for my 900a and my sling pack. Everything should come together if I can find a suitable iPod or pmp.

For now, it's the holiday and I'm chilling out on the porch. A completed project, btw.

Organizing?

Interests:

  1. Robotics
  2. Programming
  3. Games
  4. AI
  5. Speech control
  6. Home automation
  7. Cars
  8. Fitness workouts, etc

Fitness is the only really active one, with regular visits to the gym.

Projects do not need to be profitable, but it would of course be nice. It's always been a good motivator for me. Getting to work with others is pretty important.

Work on ai through involving it with the other projects, the same with programming. Cars is the expensive project and requires planning, probably prettyy stale until we get a house. So it comes down to speech control, home automation, games and robotics. I need short and long term goals in each. Possibly multiple projects in each category? Home automation is also hard to really have fun with until we own a home.

Think I will start with some chores and more preparation on the travel kit. Going to hit the bank, check my finances and search for my messenger bag. Thinking I need a new duffel as well.

Will continue this when I get back.
