Balancing Life, Tech, and Faith – April 9, 2025

Some days feel like a hundred tabs open at once—juggling IT duties, county operations, prepping for long-term emergencies, and squeezing in quiet time with God. Today was definitely one of those days.

Started the morning with a few emails, trying to smooth out a small glitch on the county website. Nothing serious, just another day of working around the limitations of what we can afford. Then I jumped over to testing some power runtime numbers for our replacement UPS setup. The Eaton 9170+ has done its time, and I’m pushing to get us compliant and feels like a high bar when you’re also watching the budget bleed out.

On the personal front, I finally sat down to work on the Bipolar Christian site. Got the lighthouse image cropped for the internal pages, and played around with Astra’s page header settings. I think it’s starting to look the way I envisioned—clean, calm, anchored. That theme of light in the storm really resonates with where I’m at lately. It’s not just branding. It’s a metaphor I keep coming back to.

Tomorrow’s task list is already full—finalizing a couple internal audit steps and prepping for our upcoming internal pen test. But tonight, I’m thankful for quiet. And for the calling that somehow makes all the chaos feel meaningful.
