2024/02 Ship's Log

I haven’t written as much on my website of late. Logs are somewhat less frequent, but I have very few other writings. Much of my writing energy has been funneled into bullet journaling.

I’ve built a website for one of my favorite food trucks in the Black Hills, Savour Pinoy & Sushi. It’s a joy to give back to a local, cross-cultural small business owner that serves delicious food. Who knows, maybe this could be the start of a partnership with the local food truck scene?

We reserved our 10th anniversary adventure trip yesterday night. We’ll be staying at a family-owned lemon farm near the Amalfi coast. It will be our first time visiting Italy; a mixture of good food, hiking, and site-seeing. With a little planning it will also be my MBA celebration and a celebration of perseverance towards Amie’s licensure. (We have a celebration backlog 😄)

In the space of a few hours I’ve done work across at least three technical domains that are usually each their own jobs.

First, I’ve used the Python Django Framework to model a menu and location admin service. Second, I’ve designed a responsive, themed website for one of my favorite food trucks. Third, I’ve established an Ansible deployment service to send my latest creation to the Internet.

On the one hand, I’m proud of myself for gaining all the proficiencies required to do the jobs of three people. On the other, I’m disappointed that I derailed my schedule for a fan site.

Today is Amie and Amanda’s first women’s DBS since the holiday break. They’ll be meeting weekly this round. The details of what they’ll study are still to be decided, either a theme or a continuation of Mark. So excited for them!

I learned that another person at my work is interested in moving to another team. This means that, when I start the next project for another team, I may have a place to remain on that team instead of returning to the Portal team. I’m not sure if this is a good thing yet, but since Mike is also taking over that team it’ll mean my reporting structure remains the same. So it can’t go that bad. Can’t wait for a new project!
