      All the recent design work has me rethinking what I had planned to do with building a Desktop and or laptop.

      I think now I'll scrap the idea of a decent class desktop and go with a laptop, and consider retiring my Dell 2 in 1 as well. Besides, the back and forth of Desktop, laptop is a bit annoying.

      Been working (with @scottalanmiller ) on a network / server build of a start up. I've designed out some simple office networks in the past, one or two servers, switch stack, phone system. But i've not worked on designing one as advanced as this one is. My biggest 'hangup' right now is storage, storage at a level I've not seen in a sub 500 employee business.

      I may have a meeting with them later this week,.. but will see. Lot to think about, and digest - Glad I have ML to pull from.

        I find that good process workflow and desktop + laptop works great. I go back and forth all day, every day (two laptops, two desktops) and don't have any annoyance at all. Using modern online apps, it's rare that you have any process that doesn't fluidly go back and forth transparently.

          Chicago winds had blown it loose over the last 3 years. Doing it right this time instead of slap up like 3 years ago.

          Next spring, new deck. Thinking to raise it to grade and make it a concrete patio.

                  That's a good place to start. Network+ just buckle down and do at least 30 minute every single day.

                    An wise person once told me, "You can figure out what drains your energy by looking at the things you procrastinate." It is likely that the certs you're looking at doing aren't in things you really enjoy doing, for whatever reason. Once you accept that fact you can evaluate if this is just a task that has to be done even if you don't, or if there needs to be another path taken.

                      Im at the age where I dont know what I want to do and where I want to go.
                      It's all trying to figure stuff out .

                            @JaredBusch Did you get lucky and your speedometer is just faded out or did you dim the lights so as to not publicly disclose your speeding?

                              My headlights are on because it is intermittently raining. It auto dims when the lights are on.

                                        nah - just burn and replace.. unless it's a newer machine that was downgraded.

                                          Too much information in disparate programs to do in the time frame required. But yes, that will be happening in the future.
