2024 had some ups and downs. How did it go? Read on.
I did not have a great year on the heath and fitness front. I had knee surgery in January and spent the year focusing on rehabilitating the strength back in my legs. 3/10.
I think I went ok with this one. I have been reading, riding bikes, taking my boys to soccer and helping them with their homework. My youngest son's swimming has improved out of sight, my middle son has improved alot at school and my oldest daughter moved back in with me full time.
I passed both the AWS Advanced Networking Speciality and Azure Networking Speciality certifications. I also started a computer science degree and completed 2x Subjects and started another 2. All in all, pretty good effort.
We had a pool/spa installed, and I also managed to renovate our laundry. Additionally, with my daughter moving in, we had to move some things around in the house and setup our office in another room.
I started a new job (with a company I worked withe previously) in May mostly focusing on Network Automation and Cloud Architecture. At the end of the year, the company was aquired. So far not much has changed, will have to see how things pan out in 2025.
the Rust learning journey continued and I started building a labbing tool. I built out most of the core functionality and now I am polishing to for v1 release.
All in all, not too bad. All things considered, I managed to get something acheived. I'm looking forward to 2025.
