Diary - Jan 07 to Jan 13 2023

Sat Jan 07 2023

Sleep 0400 to 1200. (8 hours)

  • Received a letter that my COBRA coverage was terminated by request so now I have to figure what happened.
  • Darn. My left ankle is feeling tweaked. Think I've been walking around too hard. Might regret it tomorrow when I can't walk.

Sun Jan 08 2023

Sleep 0430 to 0630. 1100 to 1600. (7 hours)

  • Set up the Brother printer. Fairly easy if you connect it to USB and use the PC wizard utility. Once set up you can use network admin to configure. You can also configure using the LCD panel and buttons but rather clumsy entering text.
  • Printing via iOS Air Print is good. Printing from Mac via Bonjour also good. Since it's a Wifi printer I can set it up outside my bedroom.
  • Since it's going to storm tonight and tomorrow went grocery shopping. Ankle is stiff so hobbling around.

Mon Jan 09 2023

Sleep 0300 to 1100. (8 hours)

  • Ankle feels mostly ok today. That's a relief as I thought it might get worse and then it would be a week of not being able to walk.

Tue Jan 10 2023

Sleep 0245 to 0745. (5 hours)

  • Picked up my new reading glasses. Pretty nice. I can sit at my desk and read a book perfectly but look at the monitor and it's blurry. That's how precise the glasses are.
  • Got lunch from Jeffrey's.

Wed Jan 11 2023

Sleep 0330 to 1130. (8 hours)

  • Based on my payslip I had 3 days work end of Sep 2006. Looking up calendar that meant I started Wed Sep 27 2006. Last day Oct 03 2022 so my second stint at Oracle I worked 16 years and a week.
  • Going through filing for unemployment and after half an hour or so it kicked me out and now won't let me login. Guess I'll try again tomorrow.
  • DDO hardcore - Christopher's character got killed in the last fight of Undermine where the boss sets explosive mines which did more damage than he expected.

Thu Jan 12 2023

Sleep 0330 to 1030. 1 hour nap. (8 hours)

  • Fire alarm woke me up. Sometimes when I wake up suddenly in the morning I have to poop so I did that and by the time I was done the fire fighters had left.
  • Finished my unemployment claim (luckily it saved my progress) and submitted it.

Fri Jan 13 2023

Sleep 0415 to 1145. (7-1/2 hours)

  • Received new frying pan. I guess one advantage is that it's new and flat whereas my old pan pooled oil away from the center.
