Okay. Making progress. Unit mounted and leveled. Disconnect mounted and wired to the unit. Todo: 1. Wire in the indoor units control wires after shortening (need some tools, yay) 2. Run line from subpanel in garage to disconnect. 3. Profit?

Getting closer. Need to mount the compressor, hook up the lines, and run the electrical.

I have a private Teams channel where I have multiple sources (blogs, news, etc.) post into so I can "kind of" keep up with the industry a bit better. It's a little amusing when an article keeps getting updated... Y'all alright over there, Anthropic?

After two years, I’ve got four of six lights wired up in the living room and got the hole cut for the ceiling fan. Next step: tear into the wall behind the TV to wire it all in, add an outlet or two, update switches, and reinforce the wall for a ginormous TV that I plan to buy and mount on it.

Getting ready to cut a giant hole in the ceiling, cut through some joists, do some framing, and install a new pull-down attic ladder. Unless the roof falls on me, then, well, 🤷🏻‍♂️

Making some progress on the first blessing box build for the summer. Coming along pretty nice, but the plans for this one are a bit…off. We’ll figure it out.

My highest yearly record in the past was either 10 or 12 books, so I’m absolutely smashing that this year.

“2026 Reading Challenge”
“Great pace! You’re 11 books ahead of schedule”

“24 of 30 books read with 195 days left”, above a progress bar
