Settled In And The Rest

 Well, while we managed to get everything moved, it has taken us quite a while to get everything set up the way we wanted. Things are really looking up here because the building we now live in is much more secure. No one can get into the building without a key, which is a really good thing.

Come summer, we won't have to worry about the temperature inside the apartment because we now have air conditioning. I also don't have to stand on my feet all day washing dishes because we finally have a dishwasher. I've named her Rosie.

We were having too many problems with Linux, so we've switched back to Windows after finding a fantastic deal on Windows Pro for just $12 per computer. I also got a video card for video editing. My first choice of editing software, DaVinci Resolve, didn't work out, but my second choice, Lightworks, is working just fine. The latest version even allows 1080p exports on the free plan.

My adventures in coffee are proving successful as well. I'm now making pour-over coffee using freshly ground beans. The coffee you buy pre-ground in most stores seems geared more toward cold coffee drinks, and I really don't like those kinds of beverages. I prefer what I like to call "a proper cup of coffee."
