#os upgrades

Lets see.

Do a triathlon in a month week. Haven't cycled in forever, will do so on Sunday. Need to step this up.

Learn something new and valuable everyday. Been doing a Rails refresher but have let this fall by the wayside, so need to do this.

Work a little on code everyday. Haven't coded in a while, did upgrade the Surface Pro Kubuntu from 22.04LTS to 24.04LTS.

Do some investment reading, and stockwatching More active on the exchange and making some money, and holding when losing. So not really losing any. Have organized things a bit better, and can prioritize what to watch rather than just watch everything.

Want to hit a good number this month.

Revisit projects in my head. Out of site/sight out of mind. Github's dependabot got me at least doing some merge conflict resolving.
