In fact I did sort go back to sleep, drowsed until 6. Managed to write something for the writers group meeting at 10:30. The cue was “encounter with an animal”. I was sitting on my couch looking out to the patio where 5 hummingbirds were using the feeder, so I wrote about the different ways the hummers eat.
Right after the meeting I headed down to FOPAL where I found 9 boxes waiting. I processed 5 of them by 2pm, then headed back. There’s been a shakeup in housekeeping and I have a new cleaner and a new day — for five years it’s been Wanda and Thursday at 2. Starting today it’s Celina on Tuesday at 3. So I wanted to be here to meet her.
During the event on Sunday I had found that the ATEM video switcher was acting funny. I could describe in detail what “funny” means but who would care? Anyway in the night it came to me, why not just reboot it? So tonight before supper I went down to the auditorium and checked. Yes, still acting funny. Pulled the power, counted to ten, put the power cable back. No more funny, all good.
Power it off and on again. Doesn’t work every time, but works surprisingly often.
