Thoughts of the day every day in 2013

It is also extremely secure - this computer is so secure now that I am hardly able to use it

One day your computer won't allow you to use it !

Recently a strang man called Dyaoko has been visiting this forum and making improvements to it

I wonder if he will add some new games

Hopefully more people will play the games now that the site has been fixed

3 October

My view is shrinking and mah-jong is becoming tiny

My screen view is now restricted by - let me count them - 9 tool bars - I will have to get rid of a few

4 October

Work is an overrated experience - I think I was happier when all I have to do was study - play on my computers - and eat chocolate

Now I have to spend my weekend preparing for an important conference taking place on Monday

[Anthea]

5 October

I still have broadband problems

I have asked BT for a written explanation as to the cause of the problems and exactly what they have done to correct the problems - that should upset them because they have NO IDEA what is wrong

[Anthea]

6 October

Tomorrow or Tuesday at the latest I should know exactly what our main business is going to be so that we can really start finalising plans - my life has been in limbo for the past few weeks while everything come together

Still very busy doing research

Things are definitely getting better

Though sadly not for many of my Kurdish friends who are losing relations in the Syrian fighting - Kurds are almost never mentioned in news reports - Kurds are being forgotten again

This video is just about as logical as everything else that is happening in the middle east

8 October

All work and very little play

[Anthea]

9 October

Still hard at work - very little time for myself

It was a lovely warm day yesterday - everyone out in their t-shirts - today cold strong wind

[Anthea]

10 October

The wind is cold - winter is on it's way - the nights are drawing in - I ran out of chocolate

I am still hard at it doing research - refining plans - exciting stuff but extremely time consuming

Should have more free time by Sunday

11 October

I think that whoever was doing the man-in-the-middle attack has given up trying by now - I have changed computer so many times - changed distros - changed proxies - changed encrypton - changes passwords - even I have trouble getting into my systems

I use more live distros now - not saying which ones

Still very busy but like to keep up with what is going on especially in Syrian Occupied Kurdistan - so sad what is happening there

[Anthea]

12 October

I am suffering from overwork

[Anthea]

13 October

I am still working far too hard

[Anthea]

14 October

Running late and working hard

One of my dearest friends is going to the Mosque to celebrate Eid - his first time in years and years and even MORE YEARS

I am delighted that he is taking another dear friend of mine with him - hopefully it might stop my lovely young friend destroying his life gambling - so sad because he is a lovely man with a clean heart and a wonderful family - yet there he is every day in the betting shop - I love this man as my own dear son and his wife and children are part of my family

I keep changing distros - I must have installed over 12 in the past few days - I still prefer Mint 12 but time moves on and it is no longer being supported - many thousands of people left Ubuntu when they changed to unity - I do not think any of us will go back and Mint has become the top distro
