Interested to hear what others are doing besides working with the plastic brick
and reading the forum (yes, I see you do).

I prepped tonight's dinner (nasi goreng with chicken satays), made a batch
of chicken curry salad (which sounds way healthier than it is - "chicken
curry spread" would probably be a better term), now doing some home cleaning.
I was hoping to take a brisk walk outside, but it looks like there is still too
much ice on the sidewalks, and I can't risk toppling over again after two
back surgeries (if that wouldn't have killed me, my wife would have finished
the job).

Niek.

Hi 😊. Today have been too relaxed. 😬😇 Only at home. Washed clothes, watched
one of my favorite tv series from Youtube (a few episodes left, then all seen),
dreaming about how would it feel, if i one day could afford travelling again
to more far away countries than the western neighbour, thinking how on Earth
shall i get the best motivation to put in order all items at my home... So that
for example when i vacuum clean, it would be done much faster than lately and
taking dust away from higher places like book shelves with many small items and
many other things, would also be like easier and not take so much time than what
it takes lately... Thinking, that do i really want to find love of my life,
or would it be the best only to stay single or what... 🤔 Only in dreams is where
i these days have felt like in love or like so warm and hot feelings 🙂 Did i
say too much 🤔🤣

I'd say you can't want to find love - if you're over 16 I
mean

The only thing you can do is to be ready, opened, in case of.

Apart this, it'll come or not - and the more often I think - not the way
you've imagined it.

But if that happens to you, being (the more often) alone, it has real pros!

Life happens, you can't decide all what happens - enjoy it as it is, be ready,
be on the move and the change.

Enjoy the travel, enjoy every day!

So, you took a break from talking so you can talk elsewhere?

Celebrated my 13th anniversary with my spouse last night at a very nice sushi
place, then cuddled up and watched The Last of Us. Today I'm listening to
Finnish folk music, Calogero, VNV Nation, Katatonia, and Metric (music is my
true love, and my tastes are quite diverse), drinking coffee, and watching the
snow as I do a variety of work on my laptop before I pack orders.

  I gotta say it looks and sounds delicious, your take on nasi goreng. What time
should I be there?

Ah - that pic was from the chicken curry spread. The prep for the nasi goreng
meal (Indonesian for "rice fried" consisted of marinating chicken and
cooking rice. The marinating in advance is obvious, the rice cooking is needed
because for a proper fried rice the rice must be cooked and then completely cooled
off before frying it.

You can drop by any time for a meal, I can always whip something up.

Building with electronics. Usually I've built things based on Arduino to
do things.
