Thursday: made offer, frustrating day
Jul. 23rd, 2020 11:00 pmWe made an offer at ask for the property. Very exciting! Starting to seem mildly real.
It was a super frustrating day in a lot of ways. I got a lot of things done, but everything felt like it was just not going to work. I decided to set up the DAKBoard, but when I tried to connect the calendar, it did not display properly; it took a while to realize that I picked the wrong link to copy from iCloud.
I never did get the Nest integration to work, but that is not important to me. Good news, tho, we did work through all the crap to get my account to connect properly to the house (which is set up through R.). And thus I did get Alexa integration with Nest to work. So, you know, that is something.
Also, I did successfully get Dark Sky and Flickr connected to the DAK board. I think the biggest problem is going to be convincing people to leave the DAKboard turned on.
I wanted to save the bedroom suite A. designed in Sweet Home 3D on my computer. I am not sure what happened, but I was unconvinced it was saving (and if so, where). I eventually opened up the file I had been working on, copied her suite over to it (where I ultimately wanted it anyway, at least, on the right sheet), and then saved that. I doubled checked — it really is there — and then I quit out of Sweet Home; who knows what happened to the original and I do not particularly care.
The whole day was kinda like that — I got stuff done, but weird shit kept coming up along the way.
