My Recipe For a Perfect Meal

I woke up after sleeping early last night. It went smoothly up to the time I fell to my soft bed again in my dream. Then I woke up around 6 in the morning. I went down to prepare my coffee and breakfast. I sat down and took my blood pressure monitor. I have 130/70 mmHg, 70 bpm. Mom entered the kitchen and prepares breakfast. I got the vegetables out.

Ingredients: romaine lettuce 7 leaves
cabbage 1 cup
bell pepper 1 cup
tomato 1 cup
cucumber 1 cup
mayo 2 tbsp
coconut oil / lauric 2 tbsp
fried egg 2

It's 20 degrees Celsius outside. Cold morning with a slight breeze. The sun is barely out. Mother is cooking fried rice and sardines. I'm making a salad. She's cooking fish. My coffee is black unsweetened. We sat down to drink our coffee cups. Her cup was with cream and sugar. We started to talk about school and the grandchildren who are far from us now.

Password Issues On Ubuntu Login

I found myself unable to enter my login credentials when prompted to do so in Ubuntu. I think I might have changed it then forget about it. I've been running the current session for more days than I should have. I forget. So what's the solution to my problem. How do I get in to my system now? It involved getting into the grub menu somehow. I am uncertain as to how to do that exactly in your system. So there's a couple of ways to do it (finger's crossed). When booting at system start, use the esc key or the shift key. The first one worked for me. The timing is key. Wait until the bios banner shows then hit the esc key once. I am using Ubuntu 22.04.4 here. I have a current version of grub. The grub menu will give you options and the one you want is: root. Yes you want root privileges to set the root password. It should give you a terminal access where you can issue commands. Type: #mount -rw -o -s remount / ==> this command mounts the filesyste...

2024 So Far

I have a feeling of moving earth or walking off my itchiness. The growing fat in my belly tells me I am failing on many occasions to give in to this urge. My eyes are blurred by morning glory. I remember my father having the same ritual in the morning. After his weak stroke, he couldn't speak much, just a grunt but he would demonstrate with hand how he liked to wash his face. The weather wasn't helping. It's been raining cats and dogs the past week. The province of Rizal was soaked and spilled volumes of water into the bay and Laguna lake. Our Caimito tree was cut to no more than 4 feet from the ground. It was towering above the corrugated sheet metal of our roof. Now it lay horizontal on the yard. I calculated it could be made into a whole table and chairs set by a talented carpenter artist. I showed Lino the two big pieces of trunk that could only be moved if cut by a power saw in place. The road widening project in San Mateo was in the middle stage. One side of the road ...
