I listened to a TED Talk and it filled me with so much positivity! That was the best thing happened to me this week.

Completed a project to audit log Apple workstations that was due in November. I wasn't thrown into the loop on it until about January so required a lot of catching up.

Apple does not play nice with 3rd parties reading OS logs. After several failed attempts and Weeks of feeling lost in the Splunk, Apple, and other documentation sauce .... I got a SSL cert generated (never did this before) as a necessary step. Pulled in some very helpful devs who make their living from logging MacOS. The monkey is off my back (aka the higher ups) and I have a greater understanding of how this all works.

TLDR: I'm still a Linux / Windows guy πŸ˜› enjoy the weekend everyone.

Going on a much needed vacation to Europe in March. First time out of the States! If anyone has any friends in London/Spain, I'm all for making friends πŸ€—

Finally publishing an article that I've been dreading writing for the last few months, because I wasn't sure how it would turn out. I ended up really enjoying finishing it!

Idk, I have been a nanny for years, and some kids just decided around 2/3 that they hate everything they used to love πŸ˜’πŸ˜‚

I put a big redesign update to my website Up Your A11y live πŸ˜…

To be honest there's still lots more I need to do to spruce it up and get everything as I want but I'm so happy with the improvement over the old UI.

I was very lucky to persuade illustrator Matt Peet to turn his hand to web design and collaborate on it with me πŸ™Œ
