It’s the final day of September, and we’ve officially entered the holiday season. October is a wonderful month with its cozy autumn atmosphere and enjoyable Halloween fun! I noticed that Costco has some cool decorations on display. Seeing the spooky Halloween items right next to the cheery Christmas trees is fascinating. I often struggle with…

Hello Friday
The Odin Project’s curriculum is a bit unusual. Yesterday, I completed the calculator project, and today, we’re delving into the command line. Not that learning about the command line isn’t important—it is. The command line is a text-based interface that allows users to interact with their computer’s operating system by typing commands. It provides direct…
It’s almost Friday!
I’m feeling better today, but I’m a bit overwhelmed at the moment. I need to put away my clothes, but I will only have time to do it after 5. It’s frustrating because I can’t focus on coding with this unfinished task on my mind. Even though I’ve made a to-do list in my planner,…
It’s ok to not be ok
I decided to write during my lunch break, even though I don’t have much to write about. I’ve been pondering what to write today, but nothing has come to mind. My morning didn’t go well – I had trouble with the Keurig and forgot to pack Tommy’s lunch. I put extra water in the Keurig,…
Nostalgia
Nostalgia often catches us off guard. Today, Karissa had her doctor’s appointment to check her thyroid levels, and everything looks good, which is excellent news. During the appointment, the doctor detected a heart murmur while listening to her heart. After discussing her heart history, the doctor requested to review her medical record related to her…
When life gives you Monday, dip it in glitter and sparkle all day
During my vacation, it seems that much of my progress on the Odin Project site, where I learned to code, was not recorded. As a result, I find myself having to redo the calculator project. I’m working on the HTML. Although I could quickly provide my GitHub address to showcase the work I had already…
Book list
Ok, I have my TBR list for fall books. I won’t read all these books this season, but I will have my list of books to be read. Here are a few autumn book recommendations that capture the cozy, atmospheric vibes of the season: “A Discovery of Witches” by Deborah Harkness “Practical Magic” by Alice…
Autumn
The temperature is starting to drop here, signaling the arrival of Autumn. I love Autumn’s quiet transformation—how the world slows down and shifts into warm, earthy tones. There’s a peacefulness in the crisp air, the smell of fallen leaves, and the early dusk that feels comforting and introspective. The cozy layers, hot drinks, and the…
Going through the motions
It’s important to remember that when there is a loss, the impact ripples far beyond the immediate family, affecting friends, coworkers, and others who had connections with the person. While it’s natural to focus on the family, acknowledging that others share in the grief, sometimes silently, is essential. Last night, my girl’s reaction when she…
Home
I did start writing on Thursday and Friday, but I never finished. So I will start on Thursday here: Thursday, Day 16 Vancouver… I’m feeling better today, although my energy level is still low. We kicked off the morning with breakfast at the hotel. I opted for a simple banana and egg breakfast since I…
