The world @ 5am
So here I am, already journaled earlier this evening, took a short nap, watched the last 35m of Oceans 12, went over LogWatches again - same lowered attacks - but all attacks are slowing lately, all servers, all subnets, so I am guessing the upstream provider is doing some sanity checks, I am still getting scanned now and again, but no more massive login attempt blasts, part of me is worried, part of me is happy, but it’s burning up brain time even pondering about it - so I am trying to put it aside, and keep a watchful eye through out the day/night, but not totally obsessive (well, within reason).
Talked to Rosie yesterday, she got to the doctor, got checked out and got meds to help fight off the sinus infect and such, flu season this year has been a pain, I know I was sick for a while there - but she’s on the way to recovery, just has to take some meds, and she got some sleep yesterday afternoon I hope - but keep her in your prayers if ya could, holiday season working Cafe @ B&N has got to be stressful and mildly irritating - don’t get me wrong, people who like the Java are good folk, just holidays people tend to be in a hurry and can sometimes be short with folk.
Work front above and beyond servers, may be loosing the office - but I am okay with it to a point, I’d miss the ability to have meetings, and not have to find some neutral location, but at the same time it may not be worth keeping if I am footing the entire bill + bandwidth, as it stands I share the space with my brother, and as of Friday he is moving to the beach, Saturday we are packing up his belongings into a large truck, and heading up to his new abode - be kidna tough for me as it means I don’t get to hang out with my niece as much, but it does give me a place to road trip to as of the first of the year when things calm down a bit - so that’s good - but as for the office, time will tell what is to happen, if they could lower rent $100, and I could almost do it and get a basic net connection via cable/dsl at the office, but at the same time it’d almost be easier to move back to home with a home office.
Personal life has been on the low side lately, so much going on, end of the year is always a pain, and with getting CMC up to snuff with it’s new layout, and a few other projects pending and being worked on, I am tired, but as things lighten up or there are lite days, by all means I am going to veg out, chat with friends, etc. need some relaxin soon, Rosie was cheering me on for going to the beach, but only thing is I see myself loading a fridge on my back and carring it up stairs for some reason…. I love moving
Anywhoo that’s my status report here at 5am, I think I might load up and goto the gym and burn off some of this anxiousness from server craziness, whenever there is something like false positives that come up I get anxious for a few days - ocupational hazard I suppose. Anywhoo keep the prayers comin, things are smoothin out, and hopefully before years end I can get this last server swaped out and new one in place.
