  • Another nice ...

    Autumn day, but I woke up tired. - I did stuff, drove the eBike, was the whole day tired. Even the nap in the afternoon didn’t help nor made it worse. Kinda strange, besides eating to much, to late and sugar was involved, too.

    Tomorrow I accompany my daughter as “safety driver” again. The time isn’t a great choice, but for the kids …

    That a good week lies ahead of us. We need to concentrate on more important things, than what we own, or want. I’m talking to Putin, Trump, Xi, …

  • A real beautiful afternoon ...

    I had to wait for my daughter during her driving lesson and did 7k, slow but steady, in the meantime.

    Back home I washed her car and checked the tire pressure. Unfortunately one of the wheels is losing air, it has to be fixed.

    I’m quite exhausted, but I know I moved myself a lot, so their is a good reason for it.

  • Doing ...

    The walking, the eBike, feeling less “fulfilled” today.

    I invested and hope to see returns, the Jackpot went somewhere else.

    I can’t give up and I won’t, I still have room to move - so many have not.

    Have a good weekend and that we see this “Top Leaders” in the world to stop, ruining it for everyone alive.

    Never give up - never surrender.

  • Reconciliation ...

    With myself, after walking for 8 kms and also doing 13 kms on the eBike.

    After yesterday’s sugar rush, it was more than necessary, but sugar leaves the unhealthy residues in your body, that can cause issues in the long run.

    Interesting, the potential “lorry buyer crowd” got in contact with me again, about purchasing it now, as they finally got an extension of their ESB contracts.

    I trust it, when the money is on the account. I still hope, to win in the lottery, because I will miss the opportunity to drive a/my lorry.

    I hope, for a good Friday and a weekend that brings relexation and winnings.

    Never give up - never surrender …

  • I hoped ...

    To be more consistent, but I’m not.
    Today, I had a full scale fallback, to crazy chocolate & ice cream consumption, like watching yourself doing something really stupid, causing only oneself to suffer.

    I had a conversation with my older daughter, she’s kinda a “lost child”, misguided by the “modern art of warfare”, or how to make people believe in absolut useless stuff for their life itself.
    I still hope, she’ll find her bearing, before something bad happens to her, I can’t safe her from.

    For what I ate in sweets today, I didn’t moved myself at all.

    I have to do better tomorrow, again, it’s egoistical, but its about me, my “quality of life”.

    So do better and never give up - never surrender.

  • I was ...

    Full of anger yesterday and it blinded my mind.

    I don’t change my given statement from yesterday, unfortunately it is true and never changed over all the years I had to work with banks.

    I carried my anger over into today, but also felt not very well altogether. I only got forward slowly today, kinda of struggled with “my outdated computer hardware”. In the afternoon I put myself together and drove my eBike for around 40km.

    The weather was nice, but it get way to cold in my workshop, still waiting on my new work shoes. With not broken shoe soles, they should properly insulate my feet against the concrete floor.

    Avoid, to let you suck into Fear - Anger - Hate and never give up, never surrender.

  • The day ...

    Started at 0700 at went well until noon, but after that 💩

    The only short light moment, besides the animals around me, was that my daughter came by, to pick up some stuff in the afternoon and I was allowed to give her a hug.

    The rest was mainly about money and the corrupted banks/creditcard institutions, they’re all F###ers. They only take, never give.

  • The weather ...

    Was nice, but a strong breeze from the north let it feel quite cold.

    I drove my eBike 60% of the way without support. It is a heavy bike, but it was good exercise.

    I ate sugar, but I didn’t used up all of it.
    Can an addict learn to constrain himself 🙄🤔 I hope for myself, I’m on the right path.

    That a great week, with less killing, lies ahead of us - without the majority let themselves be driven by “Fear - Anger - Hate”, because this is what “the few”, who don’t care about us, try to apply to the rest of humankind, to „steer them well“ … into self-destruction.

    Never give up - never surrender … in vouching for peace.

  • Being ahead ...

    Of oneself. I felt today, as it would be Sunday already.

    I accompanied my daughter to her driving lesson, did a little bit of day dreaming about “my” Hyundai Inster, asked at the local dealer for delivery dates.

    I checked and washed the car of my daughter, to only get back from her: “I’m not one of the “keeping stuff clean” type 🙄🙃

    She is pressured by her school work, but mainly I think, by setting her priorities wrong. But who am I to judge 🤔 I didn’t finished school, didn’t even come that far.

    It had cost me one of my life dreams, living in Canada at a beautiful spot I already “owned”, but through changes in their immigration law, I lost it all. Because I wasn’t “educated” enough.

    I would love to be able to better support both of my daughters, kinda failing there as well, but will not give up to try.

    Never give up, never surrender.

  • It happened ...

    Already yesterday, that I listened to Tim Ferris’s interview with Pablo Holmes.

    And I don’t agree with all the things that where said, especially about nuclear power. How certain rich people have their ideas about the future for humankind, or the planet, that was simply scary, if true.

    But I do think he is right, for the same reasons I see myself, that too many of us are working on completely useless virtual realities, software, games, things that don’t have any real impact on the planet, or the “physical environment”. But taking a lot of energy and that has to change. Innovation in the „physical realm“ are needed, I think.

    Many of us don’t really know anymore, what physical work really means, and we are still missing that technology advantages in the daily life, besides once more the inappropriate energy usage, or destruction of environments, that AI technologies should bring us.

    I’m happy today, because I walked for the first time since 6-7 months in my “normal range” of 8-9 minutes/km, no coughing. I hope, it’s not an outlier only.

  • An active one ...

    Rain, but I walked my 6k and did another 13km with the eBike.

    I’m quite tired and wasn’t that productive, more reactive for the rest of the day. I was happy to have moved myself that much, other things weren’t that great.

    My daughter came already down today, tomorrow she has a driving lesson and I’m driving with her.

    It’s raining and is forecasted to not stop until Sunday morning 🥳

  • A little slower ...

    But still getting things done.

    On the ebike for 26km, behind the mower and working with the hedge trimmer too, the weather was good, the wind caused me headache.

    I ordered a couple more things, but as usual the guilt is there, even so I can’t wait any longer, as by now e.g. all my “work shoes” are now have broken shoe soles, besides the profile is gone completely. The risk to hurt my feet, it doesn’t make sense.

    There was nothing to “win” today, so no relief with money at all.

    At least in „my universe“, the planet is still spinning and I’m here to experienceing it.

  • Not so bad ...

    I woke up not too late, I drove my eBike, I pressure washed the pathway around the house. It became a “bio hazard” 😁, moss made it very slippery.

    My back gave me a clear sign, it doesn’t like this slowly static work. There would be accessories, but they’re to expensive. The 3 hour job, would only have taken me an hour with that extra tool, but 🤑💩

    A warm bath was helping to ease the stress on the back and I had just enough warm water for it, that I’m very thankful for.

    Can I keep up tomorrow as well, I stay positive. It is a “little life” I’m living, but thankful that there is peace around, this can change so quickly these days.

  • My one day streaks ...

    They getting annoying, tiredness, cancelations, bad weather …

    Only a few little things were getting done. Slept two times during the day and looking already forward to bed again 🙄

    There must be a great Tuesday ahead …

    Never give up, never surrender …

  • Everything ...

    Was and went better than expected today.

    I woke up at an appropriate time, around 0715 and went through with my extended morning routine. I had a nice breakfast and my neighbor came afterwards over to change tires in my workshop, where I helped, too.

    Afterwards I went on the ebike, with sunshine along the way, most of the time. Later I prepared dinner for my daughter and myself, that was well received.

    I was able to help my neighbor later in the day once more, with towing broke down machinery. And after that, I enjoyed a relaxing bath.

    Even so I’ve not much, not a great outlook for a longer life ahead, I really try to cherish this moments.

    I wish, that for everyone a good week lies ahead. I’m already happy, as I see my daughter during the week again as well. I‘m missing my older one.

  • Waking up ...

    Feeling tired, it did not change the whole day long.

    I tried to play games on the computer, to may find an additional way to interact with my younger daughter, I’m not good at it. But I’ve to admit, the graphics are getting really good.

    I hope, to be able to sleep through tonight and have a good day ahead, like everyone else too.

    I was able to help my neighbors a little, so hopefully something good for the day. My daughter is with her friend, empty house again.

  • I find it ...

    Interesting, when an economist talks about his positive outlook for AI.

    He described it in the way, that the robots will do our busy work and yeah, you can do other stuff that brings you more from whatever …, but should we not have a closer look, when this “lesser work” can be done by AI (somebody else), why is it even considered necessary in the first place?

    Does this not clearly shows us, that so many of the things we do, are completely useless to mankind after all.

    This work, that is done, causing so much suffering and destruction to the only place we can live on, as it is a waste of energies (life, electricity, …).

    Why is there not an awakening about just that point, to leave out all the useless stuff in the first place and to create something positive instead?

    Why is nobody talking about that?

    Because when we let do AI all this useless things, knowing how much energy AI already consumes, the planet will be gone by the time, won’t be habitable anymore, when the benefits outweigh the losses.

    The same person afterwards was praised from the podcast hosts to be so ethically and thinking about society. So a really smart person, but taking his statements, he completely left out the basics for survival on this planet, I think.

    And he’s not the only one lately.

    Or is there this naiv, hopeful belief humankind will get it together after all in time and its only for me so hard to grab that 🤔

  • A kinda ...

    “being Rumpelstilzchen and please let me explode afterwards” day, to remove oneself of responsibility.

    I’m upset, even so I brought my weight down to 72kg, I’m not tall so necessary (my back, knees), did my approx. 100 push-ups for the day, walked outside a little with hitting the “sunny spots” during a rainy day.

    But as I ordered a few things today, after pushing them ahead for close to a year, I’m immediately felt guilty. Our systems are definitely broken in so many ways and without a lot of money, you’re fucked.

    Only thinking about one of the top billionaires valued at ~380 billions and there are more of them in the similar, nearby range. Dividing his money between the ~8 billions of us, would mean everyone get ~47$. In many places on this planet, this is already a little fortune.

    For sure, all is virtual and they will tell you, they can’t, because they worked all so hard and earned it, or did all this work and their achievement’s are, for the better of all mankind.

    But in reality - my understanding, of their reality … they live their life’s with a lot of unnecessary extras and when disaster strikes from wars, or climate change impacts, they simple will move on and let a “broken world (planet)” behind, for the rest of us.

    Or all is a simulation and I’m wondering, why “creating & realizing of suffering” is the „most requested and applied feature“ of it 🙄🤔

  • A lot of Aliens ...

    As I watched a lot of science fiction today (StarTrek Strange New Worlds).

    But I do thing, we became Aliens to this planet, as we distanced ourselves more and more from nature. We made „sick decisions„ (from my point of view) to „claim the planet for us“, like we’re only be placed here, to exploit it.

    Why can’t we change, instead of closing us off via our screens, or “city bunkers”, where “outside” is a threat, at any weather situation?

    I accompanied my daughter at her drive to the driving lesson. She’s getting better and I hope, she’ll stay safe for the rest of her life, when driving.

    I had ice cream today, but my weight goes still down, a good thing and I hope, to stay smart in dealing with sugar = enjoy it in the right amounts.

  • Nice day ...

    With sun, before the rain returned in the evening.

    My guest enjoyed the walks over the fields today 2x times, as I had more time and was picked up in the evening.

    As nice the weather was, very humid too, not that great for my lungs. Very tired today, but still watched the Apple event. Finally an iPhone pro in my preferred color, but if not a wonder happens, I can only put a picture on the wall 🙄😁

  • He got ...

    Worse and shit in the house 4 times so far altogether, my special treat was that the vacuum robot started and just hit one of the 💩 piles.

    Two hours altogether, of mobing the floor and cleaning the robot vacuum, it was tedious.

    He’s a poor guy in the end, as I learned he’s living outside, but loves to be close to humans and needs at least two longer walks throughout the day, I think.

    So the day was busy, but in different ways than planned 🙃

  • Followed up ...

    With another CAD lesson today. I like these programs nowadays, they are so advanced already, but also a lot to learn and to get mental flexible again, too.

    I did a brisk walk in the afternoon for 6km. I have an unexpected guest, my daughter’s friend’s dog stays with me for two days. He was here before, he’s still as crazy, but I do think he’s still not “enough utilized”. He needs an outlet to get rid of his energy overflow 🤓

    Very tired today, but I did do brain and physical work 🙃

  • I'm proud ...

    As I was on my older daughter, that my younger one does good with driving, too.

    I felt safe and chauffeured around 😃 The car could be a little bit higher from the ground, helping me get in easier, with my “stupid back”.

    You clearly see, I do need my Porsche Taycan GT (automatic raises height for entry), it’s obviously only for my back and fully electric, too 😁😇

    I picked up, during waiting on my daughter as she had a driving lesson, walking 5 cans/bottles that can be returned for refund. That shows, the money is still everywhere around us, even lying around on the streets … so let me do the math towards my Porsche 🤓🥳🙄

  • I moved ...

    The mower. The iPad, to work in CAD, solving a problem and printed it afterwards on the 3D printer. My design was unfortunately flawed, but I didn’t redo it, I adapted it, to not waste the used material.

    It worked out great and is useful as hoped. I’ll try to fix, for learning purposes, the drawing itself, but keep it “virtually” (again, it’s about resources).

    I filmed myself, to have material (B-roll). I don’t think it will be ever for the public, but it is another learning endeavor, how to use DaVinci or FinalCut, not sure which one yet.

    I hope, the weekend will open a lot more opportunities to develop myself further, if the body complies.

    For us all, I wish, a great weekend.

    After I was watching a Video on WSJ, about the US Tech CEO’s that were invited and talked at a dinner with Trump … we all need a break from “hail the king” (or licking …).

  • The doing ...

    Wasn’t there today as hoped. An interrupted night, early start and then a lot of uncertainty what to do next. Tiredness creeped in and an early nap took place.

    Afterwards anger developed about things, I cannot really change, one of the masterpieces of being human, the perfect waste of time and mental energy.

    During my cycling I listened to a podcast, that at least for me, showed we’re choosing to often, the wrong priorities as humanity, as individuals, too. - Again.

    I’m happy, as my daughter decided to stay “with me” in the house here, already today. It simple feels good, to have her around. Even so she submerged in her room, right after arrival.

    So thankful for my Neighbours once more, as they helped me to get my heating oil. They bought simple a bit more and I can get it from them for the “better volume price”. As the company I bought from, for more than 12 years, allowed me part payments all the time in the last years since my divorce (money scares), stopped doing so. Always paid, always said upfront it will take longer, but in the end, money is always more important than helping out.

    That is while the “world order” is slowly breaking down, people are stopping trusting each other, nor helping, because mistrust is spread everywhere and even you did had a “good track record”, it gets worthless rather quickly.

    It is on us, to stop this development, to change and not eradicate, wipe us and all life, from this beautiful planet, we call earth.
