The Internet of things, and security.

Most people are not security experts. And I'm absolutely most people. It's scary getting aware of the fact that the Internet of things is a security risk. Many of the things in our life is networked and are at  risk of becoming hacked. Hackers are even able to hack our modern cars. It's both interesting and scary.
Pessimistic researchers claims that in our near future we will experience periods up to a week or two where the Internet is down. As we are becoming more and more reliable of the Internet, especially because of all the gadgets in our houses, cars and where ever we are. It's difficult, almost impossible, to imagine what it will be like. Let's hope we will not experience it.

Me time.

We still have some challenges coping with our daughters tough time. Trying our best to help her is draining our energy and I should probably have gone to bed as it's almost midnight here in Norway. But I need some me time with my book in a quiet house where everyone is sleeping.

Family.

My family and it's well being is the most important thing for me. Therefore I have a tough day today when my daughter is telling us she has a hard time. She's a fantastic girl but all to often she is hard to her self. I also believe that she, like many youngsters, is struggling to find her place and who she is. It's also hard to see her always comparing herself with others and not being able to see what a wonderful girl she is. It's breaking my heart seeing her unhappy and feeling unable to help her.

Happy new year.

It has been a hectic period the last few weeks, and it will probably continue through January. But I am feeling confident that this is the beginning of something better.
When February arrives my plan is that things will be more stable work wise and my income will be close to what I had in November but the hours spent will be considerably less. And the most important I will be happier at work, working with people who bring out the best in me.
2017 will be a fantastic year, because I say so, Living the good life in this Wonderful World.
