I'm elated I don't have to go back to the office yet. After reaching FI commuting two hours each day for work on public transportation is just not appealing. And I get to use the pockets of small time slots on myself, rather than pretending to be working in the office, or waste time chitchatting on subjects I don't care about. I also get to use a clean bathroom that I clean weekly myself, and prepare fresh meals twice a day. Next possible chance of returning to the office: Jan 3, 2022 ...

Then I listed a bunch of unused items on eBay. Life is good. ...

Welp, I'm taking one more steps towards privacy. Just ordered a pixel 5 and will try out graphene OS. I haven't decided which carrier I will stay with though. Gotta figure that out shortly. ...

I haven’t used my camera for a long time Debating if I should sell it to get multiple cellphones Cellphones seem to be what I am obsessed with these days But my camera is top of the line and take amazing portrait pictures. If I ever get to see phie babe I want to use it to snap snap. So undecided… I guess I will keep my camera until I know if I am ever going to meet with phie babe. ...

My performance review numbers are out. I used to be so obsessed about the numbers. This time I got surprised my boss brought up that he was about to go through the numbers with me. I guess I no longer care. And that's a good thing. Continue to send my whole paycheck twice every month to investments. Continue to live on my ESPP amount (16.5% of my gross salary = 15% gross and 10% purchase discount). If this is not security I don't know what is. ...

Terrified to learn that there is a kidnapping case in the neighborhood this afternoon, in a generally safe area. I can’t imagine what the girl is suffering right now ...

Mom will have another test at the hospital tomorrow July 16, just running on a treadmill. ...

Luckily it was just a 5 hour check and everything comes back normal. She complained her heart hurt for days and I'm glad she got it checked out. The wait was not nice for me though, unsure what's going on. Gotta praise the Canadian medical system. ...

These days I feel like I live a very comfortable life. My immediate personal life is going well. Work is not too stressful. Non existent money problems. My boyfriend behaves well. I don't have too much health issues. (I have some tiny ones but they are under control - perhaps the topic of a different post). My mom's health, however, is the subject that worries me. My mom is in general good health. But since she has the vaccine, she has been complaining about heart tightness and that it ...

I have struggled with this question forever. Typically my mode of operation is I set up something, write a few months, make a few friends, then I will delete my blog. Will this mode change finally? This is not a fancy place, I just can type in plain text. I am not going to care about grammar and spelling too much. No SEO concerns. By emptying my head I hope I will be able to carry on with my middle aged life at a unremarkable pace. ...
