Month notes & numbers No. 5

May 2024

Notable

#WeblogPoMo2024. I added a note every day this month. It was sometimes a squeeze to get a post up, but I think I did less procrastination and time-wasting overall this month.

I was thinking a lot about ways to move more. I considered buying a walking pad for my standing desk but I’ve been working on just standing more instead.

I had a really great Mother’s Day weekend. I organised a night out with some friends. It’s out of my comfort zone to be the organiser of such a thing, but it was a great night and I was so glad I did it.

I started volunteering for our School’s P&F. It’s the first time in a long time I’ve felt like I’ve had the capacity to do anything like this outside of my day job and my family, so that feels good.

Work

Still(!) working on the Permissions implementation for our new CodePen Editor.

The work soundtrack: Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga (Music from the Netflix Film)

Watched

We started on Marvelous Mrs Maisel. It’s pretty good so far!

Read

I’m slowly getting through Mistborn: The Final Empire. I’m enjoying it! Enjoying it so much that I keep staying up too late to read a little more. It’s problematic.

The numbers

My counts from Chronicling.
