Happy New Year nostr! This year I'm going to try to use nostr more and figure it out at a deeper level. I feel I've stalled at the "Twitter clone" stage and don't do much else with it yet. A lot of promise here, and I need to explore it more.

Today we celebrate our vindication day!

I just actually used the coin control features when sending a transaction from my node for the first time. Selecting which UTXOs to use feels powerful.

Had a great Sunday. Church in the morning, then went to Walden Pond for the first time. We've always wanted to go there. Our boys had fun, and it is also our 12th wedding anniversary! 💕 Very low-key, but a great day.

We had a great Halloween 🎃

I'm about to interview someone to come be my new boss... lmao... 🤣

I really stretched my computer skills 💻 this weekend! I was able to install Balance-of-Satoshis and Rebalance-LND. It was my first time using Github and a command line interface! Not sure if everything is working yet, but I got it all setup! 🤞 Thanks to @C-Otto 🔸

Aqua wallet is pretty amazing. I just sent on-chain bitcoin directly into my Lightning wallet without swapping using their new direct peg-in feature. It was pretty easy and seamless. We're getting there!

Nice day overall. We all went to church followed by a church council meeting. Then, I played outside and went hiking with my son quite a bit, did two loads of dishes, and then grilled some roast beef and made dinner for my family. Good day, but exhausting! 😴

I just asked my boss for a $100k budget increase for my department for next year! 😂🤞

I just finished reading Matthew and day 266 of my Bible in a Year study program. This year is about spiritual growth for me. I think 2025 will be more focused on physical health improvements.

I am in need if 1 or 2 rides to and/or FROM Boston Logan airport for me and my family. Can anyone help me out? I'm willing to pay good sats for this. 2 Adults and 2 young kids. Need to go to the airport Saturday morning (9-7-24) but we might try to take the train there. We REALLY need to figure out our ride back from the airport on Wednesday 9-18-24 at like midnight 🙃. We live about an hour west of Boston. If anyone is interested in helping us out and earning some sats, please contact me soon!

Standing room only for The Mass of the Holy Spirit outside on a beautiful day at Boston College today. 🌞 ⛪️

Whew! I just finished the book of Jeremiah!

Yesterday, during naptime, I I got an achievement in Starcraft 2 that I've been trying to get since the game first came out.

I just finished Day #250 of my Bible in a Year reading program!

I just started playing Warcraft 3 again. Feels great. And im still not playing WoW.

My wife makes fucking amazing enchiladas!!!!

I said I wasn't going to drink for a while after my last conference. I lasted 4 days. Oh well, I needed a martini after today... 🍸

I am going to a "Crypto DNC" dinner event in Chicago tonight. I don't know what I'm in for, but it should be super interesting!
