#MorningAll & #TZAG G’day Squirrel Fans, hope I find you bright eyed & bushy tailed!

Happy Saturday every one, I hope you enjoy it it cost me a dozen llamas & a small otter! *

* The exchange rate of 26 otters to one llama fluctuates so timing was essential! **

** No llamas or otters were actually involved in the transaction - thanks to the magic of electronic banking! ***

*** Getting the otters to stay still long enough to be digitised is a definite challenge! ****

****Often one can only digitise one side then the otter half is created with an LLM. *****

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 888 , Friday 03/04/2026

Oh Day 888 - I’m not at all sure why it is significant. 😆

Friday started stupidly early at around 06:00, I’m not sure what woke me but the noise of the kids next door meant that I gave up trying to sleep & read until Mrs S got up at 7am.

I made us breakfast then after we had watched an episode of ‘Father Brown’ I sorted my chores & then worked on the MacBook conversion to its dual boot config.
Sadly I got a bit enthusiastic in clearing up space & ended up having to reinstall MacOS … good thing there are a couple of backups if I ever need them.

Mrs S spent the morning at her mum eating away at the seemingly endless task of sorting thru 50 plus years of stuff. There was a bit of a find though, in the shape of a box of photos & documents tracing her immediate family back to 1883.
She spent this evening happily going thru them.

We continued our ‘For all Mankind’ fest this afternoon & this evening, & had pizza for tea.

Final Thoughts.

A cup of Cona coffee is becoming a nice afternoon tradition now, not the fastest way to make coffee but there is something pleasing about the process & the slightly magical way that the water passes up thru the coffee grinds & then the coffee pours back down after it has brewed.

Not a bad day all in all - I need to get fighting the door demos after Easter but I’m happy to leave it until then.

Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖

No Rasta, it’s not a delayed refresh problem, I am late again!

Well this morning has been a fine example of hyper focus - I’m double checking that I have copied everything of use across to my Mac Mini before moving the MBP to the Linux duel boot config. I started at around 09:30, after breakfast & watching a ‘Father Brown’ with Mrs S & then doing my chores.

Now settling in to continue our ‘For All Mankind’ fest.

Good evening Squirrel Fans.

This has got to be one of my favourite Discworld quotes, pTerry at his best! :-

“In the middle of this elemental storm a fire gleamed among the dripping furze bushes like the madness in a weasel’s eye. It illuminated three hunched figures. As the cauldron bubbled an eldritch voice shrieked: “When shall we three meet again?” There was a pause. Finally another voice said, in far more ordinary tones: “Well, I can do next Tuesday.”
― Terry Pratchett, Wyrd Sisters

Right off to bed, catch you fab folk in the morning!

Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, I hope you’re well & safe! 😊🫶🖖

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 887 , Thursday 02/04/2026

Thursday started relatively late at around 07:30 which was a nice change.

Mostly rested my back today but there were a few highlights to the day.

Finished fixing the cracked casing on my SteelSeries 9 headphones - hopefully the glue will hold & the fix will be permanent - it was a fiddly repair & I’m not at all sure that much glue was applied in the end.

I also put our new grinder to the test & although it is a cheap one it seems to do the trick - I may invest in a better model when we have the spondoolies to splash on such things. The resulting coffee made in the Cona was really nice!

I have also started the process of putting linux on my 2019 macbook pro, it’s t2 chip can cause complications but nothing a little research can’t get around I hope.
First steps are getting MacOs up to date & then clearing as much space as possible for the Linux image.
I have decided to go with a dual boot config using Ubuntu as this seems to be the least fraught path available.

Final Thoughts.

Not a bad day at all, my back is still giving me grief though!

Once again I’m super late saying hello to y’all!

I just can’t get my brain into gear of a morning at the moment - very squirrelly bouncing from task to task!

On the plus side it’s a wonderfully sunny day & I’ve done all that I have to so we’re having a “For All Mankind’ fest - rewatching season 3 as it’s been a while & then motoring on from there.

Good evening Squirrel Fans.

I for one can testify to the veracity of tonight’s quote! :-

“It is true that words have power, and one of the things they are able to do is get out of someone's mouth before the speaker has the chance to stop them.”
― Terry Pratchett, Wyrd Sisters

Right off to bed, another ‘late’ night here in deepest, darkest Yorkshire.

Catch you fab folk on the other side!

Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, I hope you’re well & safe! 😊🫶🖖

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 886 , Wednesday 01/04/2026

Wednesday started around the usual time, just after 7am.

The weather has been all over the place, it was nice & sunny first thing but fairly dull & grey for most of the rest of the day!

Breakfast was followed by the usual chores during which I noticed that the washing machine was leaking from the water inlet. This prompted an impromptu repair - I replaced the seal & that seems to have done the trick.

I also tidied up the box room as we were due to have the decorator come round & give us a price for papering & painting.

I also did a few other small jobs around the house.

After a busy but productive morning I had a relaxed afternoon with Mrs S catching up on a few of her shows.

I made our 2nd Cona coffee - this one was not quite as perfect as yesterday’s, it seems timing is important. Still a bloody good cup of coffee though!

With a perfect sense of timing the coffee grinder I ordered (just a cheap burr one) turned up just as I was washing up the Cona kit. Hey ho, will be able to try our usual Lavazza beans.

Ted, the decorator rocked up Around 7pm & he seems a nice chap who knows his stuff, so now we await a price.

Final Thoughts.

I good, productive day, but my back has decided to hate me again so another rest day tomorrow is in order I think.

Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖

Wednesday has been a busy little day so far - as witnessed by the fact that I started writing this around 08:30 & am just tooting it now!

The sun was out this morning but it hid away around mid morning & hasn’t bothered reappearing!

I’m all done now so can relax for the remainder of the day!

Cashew later Peeps, have a fabulously nutty day #Today ! 😊🫶🖖
