Very bad sleep due to intense stress induced by different school meetings! I was so tired yesterday and had a wonderful recovery sleep after 3 horrible nights! Luckily, nothing happened, I was very prepared.

At the school, we have a new lab preparator. She is lost, and I secretly helped her a few times, meaning I prepared for her whatever tasks the other physics teachers asked her to do. In return, she reserved the computer classroom for me. I knew that she was only scared and tired, as most of these tasks were very simple.

Yesterday around 9 PM, EcoleDirecte (the school application manager) and my own blog went down. I quickly went online and got confirmation that EcoleDirecte was not working, however, I could not see what was wrong with my own network. This morning, with calm and more focus, I immediately saw that my PC’s IP address had changed. It is quite rare; it happens when a new device joins our busy network. I usually spot these problems very quickly, I guess I was just tired.

In this apartment with only 4 people, there are at least 26 devices connected to the network. The priority was to connect everything using cables; the rest is managed by the Honor router. I never let it create two different networks to make things easier to manage.

Nowadays, I always look for easy recipes that can be prepared fresh in the air fryer in 15 minutes. The frozen prepared mixture of butter and garlic is a very nice solution. It goes almost with all kinds of seafood and it is delicious.

All the little annoyances are gone: the old car with flat tires that was taking up space in front of the parking lot is gone, the Yaris has been great, the paper jam in the new Brother printer has been fixed, the gum and teeth sensitivity are no more, the stress caused by the salary delay has gone, the chronic back pain due to stress is gone, and the bad sleep is no more. It’s like a rainbow showing up after a cloudy day. Life feels good!

My Toyota Yaris is hanging in there! The elusive technical problem seems a bit clearer now: it is old, that is a fact. Therefore, I simply need to keep the battery fully charged in order to start the engine easily. Anything else would simply make it harder: an old battery, energy leakage due to the Bluetooth device, etc. It is starting without any fuss this week.

All of a sudden, my Linux access to Oracle Cloud was blocked! It was a bit scary since I hadn’t saved the password. Linux is so reliable that all I needed were the SSH keys. However, the account was managed by Oracle Cloud, and the service required users to change their password from time to time. Luckily, I had saved it on Microsoft Edge. Otherwise, I would have had to reinstall everything, which would have been a bit scary.
