โšก๏ธ I am really testing the Strava API right now as I found a very interesting Obsidian plugin that connects with Strava. Letโ€™s just say I am attempting to download all of my history ๐Ÿซ 

๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ’ป Finally figured out after too many test posts to count how to get the various types of emojis to render properly and passed to status.lol. I know the easy solution would have been to create a picker of the fluent emojis but I like the speed of just typing the emoji and then have work done in the background.

๐Ÿ™Œ Well that took a lot longer to figure out than I would like to admit but I decided to submit this status.lol Obsidian plugin to the Community plugins. After a couple of attempts it at least is now in the review queue. ๐Ÿ™„

โ˜€ ๏ธ New day and I hope starting out nothing is broken after trying to rebuild almost from scratch.

๐Ÿ”จ Fixing issues created by fixing other issues… This is pretty much the story of how my process works. ๐Ÿซ 

๐Ÿคฆ I am such a novice when trying to figure out GitHub. I think it took me more times than I want to admit to get the code from my computer synced up for the first time to a new repository I created. However, it is there now so I guess after some trial and error some success.

๐ŸŽ‰ I decided to cobble together an Obsidian plugin that can post directly to status.lol. More details to come as it has a couple other options but for me this fits perfectly into my workflow as I am using Obsidian to keep daily log notes.

โœ… This should post to social.lol via status.lol but the actual origination is Obsidian.

๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ’ป I really do appreciate Delta flights after not taking on the way to Texas. As I am currently watching a movie and doing some work this morning.

๐Ÿ›ซ Early morning flying back home today after spending about 30 hrs in Dallas. ๐Ÿ˜ด

๐Ÿ˜ด Wasnโ€™t even a long day of travel or anything just a very delayed flight getting us in late. Now rest.

โ›น๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ Watching my son play basketball and the team we are playing already has 4 technicals fouls (on two kids so they got kicked out) and it is not even the end of the fist halfโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜ณ

๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Well it has probably taken me over a year to actually do something with an old Mac Mini I bought so today was the day I installed Ubuntu on it and logged into it from my iPad. My work is done here ๐Ÿ˜†

๐Ÿ“š Finished Reading: The Last Minute (2011) - Sam Capra #2 by Jeff Abbott - โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜†

๐Ÿ˜– I only have one touch id keyboard and I am now using it for my work computer setup. However, now that I have hooked my personal computer up at a different desk with no touch id keyboard it causes me great frustration everytime I use it. I might have to correct this problem.

Not sure why exactly but I decided to mess with Micro.Publish code and update it so it will help me rename my Obsidian notes to get a date_slug.md. This then allows the Auto Note mover plugin to do it’s work.

๐Ÿ˜‘ Well it does seem like I should finally finish my Taxes after work today. I am not sure why I always wait till the last minute for this but here we are again.

๐Ÿ€ Now time for some more basketball!

๐Ÿ’ Early morning hockeyโ€ฆ Letโ€™s go!

๐Ÿ˜ƒ Watching Basketball in person while listening to/ passively watching hockey. This is how it is done ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ€

๐Ÿ”— Stoop Coffee: How a Simple Idea Transformed My Neighborhood Such an interesting story as I do think these sort of gatherings have been less over the years. However, makes me think if they can do it on a street why donโ€™t more of us do it out in the suburbs or houses with yards.

๐Ÿ“’ The tides have turned again and I am not going to use my iPad for note taking and I am back to pen/paper and then Google Docs (Work stuff only). I will give this new system a month ๐Ÿ˜….
