This Week in Wijnjewoude 2024

Week 10 Probably boring, but I'm finding the AI stuff very interesting and rather scary to think that it is still in the early stages. Just add it to the list of things our grandkids will have to cope with... Ben came home for nearly a week, Nice to have him around...and then he announced that he "has a job in Seoul next week" .

Help someone else. Learn something new. (my construction works are at a new level) Listen to audio books Participate in an activity or hobby. (learning all the time) Spend time with family or friends.(not much) Take a walk or exercise. (lots of this, but still not enough) Wo...
