The guide for the 3DS Circle Pad Replacement that I followed from the iFixit website was a big help especially when it warned me where I need to pay more attention otherwise I could easily damage parts like the little ribbon cables and more importantly where I can encounter glue. 🙂

The only thing that I wasn't warned about is the little transparent plastic piece underneath the the right hinge that use to diffuse the little red LED's light, that only turns on when the battery is in a very low level of charge. But there's other guides on their website in one of them they advise to pull that plastic piece before it will inadvertently fell off and will be hard to find after it.

📣 If any of you see this toot and planing to disassemble your original 3DS model make sure to pull that little transparent plastic and put it in a small box or in any container before loosing it ‼️ ‼️

The Linux machine is up and running. Typing on it right now. Yay!

The drawing monitor is NOT up and running though I did finally get it to connect. Boo!

The cords behind my desk are much more organized and the dust bunny colonies (multiple) have been eradicated. Ugh.

Homework for the Branding class I'm taking is done & turned in. Whew!

I have no words yet. *groan*

At least I have fresh pulled pork for dinner that I didn't have to cook.

My friend, @cyrus , that just stayed at my boyfriends and my place for 4 weeks, just left our appartment on her way to someone else.

Not even an hour later;
The stuff from her bed? In the washing mashine.
The mattress she slept on? Back to where it originally was.
Candy wraps and random stuff flying around the room (which would also happen if she wasnt there)? IN THE T R A S H H H!!

I do not know why, but something (or someone??) in my brain told me to clean everything and "reset the appartment" before I go back to work

Ritual? I’ve become a coffee connoisseur (at least in my eyes) over the last 5 months since I began using a stovetop percolator. #TipOfDay for keeping your stainless steel pot and parts clean, no coffee oil stains.

Let’s say this photo is a still life study. Forgot to finish cleaning the percolator and parts last night after letting it soak with the pot full of water, parts inside, with 1 tablespoon of baking soda.

In the morning I scrub all with a mix of my 3 favorite dishwashing accessories: fine nail brush for delicate areas, sturdy brush with medium-soft bristles and a mesh net nylon cloth cut in smaller pieces. It’s all still super clean and shiny 5 months out from daily use brewing coffee from fresh ground beans.

A couple more tips in comments. And please do add your tips of any sort here. Nice to initiate this hashtag in top of post. I had it
going over a year in my old instance. And these #Coffee #Cleaning #Shiny.
