Status: Supposed to be an off / on rainy day, so work outside will be tentative.
Plans: I’m trying to figure that out. Last week was a waiting game with the employment onboarding that seems to be at a snail’s pace.
Narrative: Well, I accidentally made coffee. I mean to set the timer, but forgot to rotate the switch to timer mode. Boo.
There is a squeaking roller on our dryer. What I don’t know is if the dryer is wore out and needs to be replaced which would be a major expense. Some of these financial decisions depend on whether my income will increase. If I do get a job and bring in 2-3K, things are easier to decide.
I’ve repaired the primary UPS for the house by replacing the 5 year old batteries. I’ll have to tend them since they are not AGM anymore. ($700 was just a little over the top for a pair of AGM batteries.) I don’t have a solid plan for providing power for our two CPAPs. At issue is where to locate the batteries so they are not exposed to summer temperatures and then where to put a UPS that makes a lot of noise. Even that I can run a standby UPS in the closet instead of the online UPS for the CPAPs.
I’ve repaired the refrigerator UPS by installing eight smaller batteries on it. I had two 100AH AGM batteries that are $700 to replace. The difficult thing is at what point do I replace them. It was decided a little while ago that using smaller batteries that could be replaced gradually better fit my budget than $700 all at once.
Community Bank and Trust of Fl. changed their online banking system, boo. I actually thought it was one of the better systems I’d ever worked on. It looks as though they bought onto a service that does the online banking for them. (And then relieves them of the liability.) It also looks like they’re using two factor authentication.
Had Chinese takeout for dinner, I had Kung Pow Chicken which was scrumptious by the way. Putts around the rest of the evening. Played a game of scrabble, watched a little TV and called it a day. I checked the Pi-Aware and it didn’t seem to mind the rain tonight. (Hopefully the rain shield will keep the insides dry. (It should with the heat it’s making.)
Tomorrow: Sunday’s are pretty laid out in advance, setup and run services then post the audio after taking a nap.
