    After working in a role that I didn’t necessarily like at a company that wasn’t a good fit for me I quit at the end of august. Up until last week I hadn’t really had any new potential jobs come up but now it seems I got multiple options :) Looks like it’s going to work out after all.

      me too! I quit a job that wasn’t good a week ago :D . I haven’t found new job though, I really want a job related to Linux, DevOps etc, but I am getting one that suits it. :/

        It’s fun. I have it now with lots of work from home too. Recommended. :)

        The company is not very good at following modern practices but… It’s relaxed and they have lots of money coming in, so no pressure to perform constantly. Not even daily standups. It’s amazing.

    Finally decided to travel to another state just to see my friends after 2 months social hiatus, really happy to see and hangout with everyone.

    Slightly mixed-mood news that day, found out my crush seeing someone, am both happy for her and disappointed at myself :')

    • A grass snake seems to have taken up residence under our compost heap. Hopefully it will be a suitable hibernation spot.
    • New seasons of Star Trek: Lower Decks and Shrinking are out.
    • My SO and I went for a good walk in a nearby woodland nature reserve. The autumn colours are really coming though now.
    • I now have some cosy fleece pyjamas. I haven’t owned pyjamas for decades, but can see will that they will revolutionise my weekend mornings. I don’t know why I didn’t get some years ago.

    I started reading ‘The Country of the Pointed Firs’ by Sarah Orne Jewett. And I love it.

    I never heard of that author before, only opening this book because an author whose work I appreciate a lot said his own appreciation for her. So far, I only had time to read the first four chapters but I think I can safely say I was already hooked after the first few paragraphs.

    BTW, the book and a few others of hers are freely available on the Project Gutenberg, if you don’t mind reading ebooks: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/author/202

    Watching my friends enjoy the game I homebrewed with much love. Yes, I nearly killed them all twice but they managed to survive and everyone had fun.
