Somehow lost 2kg in the last two months 🤪 must be a mix of things - exercise, snacking less, more DIY projects. Feeling good 🙌

I've got in the back of my mind to go contract / consultant / own business at some point in the future. We will see. I have savings, learnings and other things to do first. 🤓

Lots of wins of the week. Facilitated an engineering risk register meeting. Testability improvements. Multi tasking between home and work. Making a decision to go to a party instead of a 10km race. Watching cobra Kai with the family. Now finally the weekend!!!

What is something nice you've done for yourself recently? What is the last thing that made you smile? What is something you are looking forward to? Who is the last person you've helped?

My feed here is missing all the art, nature and other interesting posts of who I follow. 🫠 Time to mute some words & search for those things to change what I'm seeing.

There were some changes that happened in the product to make it easier to test. One of my personal joys in advocating for improved testability 👌🙌🎉 more efficient for all.

This evening I made a wonky box to grow potatoes in. Cut up some old wood and nailed it together. Quite proud of myself 😁😁

Managed to fill the raised garden bed (sticks from the park, other garden waste and some of our compost), plus two bags of garden waste in bags to go to the recycling centre. Tough work. Rest time :-D

I don't have any extra work professional things, appointments or events for the boys this week. Enjoying slowing down tbh. Feeling good for it 😀

I'm back to recruiting for a Senior Quality Engineer. The job advert should be going out later in the week but have a recruitment agency head hunting. A bit overwhelming recruiting at times. Luckily have other people to help me on it!

Fun day hands on exploring and learning the product. I need to block out a day a week as a minimum to do this type of thing. Test management things tend to get in the way these days (like recruitment, planning and so on).

I'm not enjoying writing in the leanpub editor anymore. Somehow stifling progress. Plan to take it all out into a word document and work on it from there.

Set myself a challenge this month of not going to the local convenience store. It's more expensive there and a bit of a habit. 5 days in and I'm winning so far 😀
