I think that I’m finally ready to migrate my mastodon account to my micro.blog account. I’ve putting it off for a while now. I don’t really like cross posting b/c it gets confusing on where the conversation is. I would prefer to have my blog as the source of truth and all conversations live there instead of in different accounts. That’s supposed to be the point of this fediverse thing. I shouldn’t need an account on every service, but we end up still doing that regardless. Mainly because the services still don’t play nice with each other. But I have hope that one day it will happen. For now, I need to simplify things from my side. I’m not sure if the mastodon migration will automatically update everything properly, so if you follow my mastodon account and want to keep following me then follow @donny@donnydavis.us.
Our daughter’s entry for the Awana pinewood derby race after church. She got third last year. I love seeing how excited she gets over this. I loved pinewood derby cars as well.
We went to see the Harlem Globetrotters in Düsseldorf on Thursday. It was such a blast. The seats that we had were double booked, so they upgraded us to court-side tickets. That made the evening so much better. Our daughter even got picked to go out on the court and do a trick with one of the players. That made the night so special.
After a several year hiatus I’m finally diving back into my Drafts action for Micro.blog. A bit frustrated at myself for abandoning it. Hoping that I’ve cleaned things up so that it works a little more reliably. Will push an update to it soon once I’ve tested a few more things.
My mom was 15 when Apollo 11 landed and watched it live on tv. Getting to watch the Artemis lunar flyby today, with her, makes it even cooler for me.
It was cloudy all week in Katwijk, but we got one nice sunset.
Spending a few days in Katwijk, Netherlands while my mom is visiting. First time here and it’s a really nice place. We’ve got a cool little place that’s right on the beach. The weather turned a bit chilly this week, but it’s still nice.
Fun time making Easter eggs with the family.
Really proud of myself today. Just locked myself out of our apartment. 🤦🏼♂️
What a few days. My mom was coming to visit us. Flying from the U.S. to Germany. Her trip has had so many issues from the start. Two hour delay in Chattanooga, missing her connection in Detroit, then a two hour delay the next day leaving Detroit. Her flight leaving Amsterdam, this morning, was delayed a bit due to winds. Then her plane was struck by lightening and had to turn back to Amsterdam. Thankfully everyone on the flight was ok. She finally made it to Düsseldorf, minus luggage. We’ll get that tackled tomorrow. For now I’m thankful that she’s ok and finally here.
