Quick test post

Did arts and crafts this morning and then stood around outside with 280 people, showing it off. No 👑!

I did a thing yesterday 😄

Not bad for my first tournament at 40! I did two tai chi forms, an empty hand kung fu form and a double daggers form. It was very inspiring and I’m looking forward to my next tournament… in three weeks ðŸĪĢ

One issue with WeirdWebOctober is that the prompt reminds me of a little side project I never completed and then I get sidetracked working on that instead 😆 So far I’ve been sidetracked by a CYOA website attempt, a randomly generated hexcrawl map and quine and my old indieweb generator. Good times!

I’m flying out for my first tai chi and kung fu tournament in less than a week, thus realizing one of my long term goals since before motherhood 😄

Here is my first entry, transparency, for #weirdweboctober.

I’m not sure how many I’ll finish this month but I’m aiming for three or four :)

Since I just changed to a new blog design, here is a picture of my old one :)

Homeschooling today featured a meltdown around math being stupid learning about y = mx + b. At work there is a bug around an object not being deserialized into JSON correctly that I need to solve… sigh ðŸĪŠ Can I figure it out before the get the kids to swim practice shuffle begins? We shall see.

I finished another tai chi video youtube link. This was the prettiest spot I did tai chi during my vacation. Two more to go and then I’ll invest in a microphone and try doing some audio ones. I also need to figure out my own video hosting.

Yesterday I learned that I can still do cartwheels around the room. This morning I learned that my shoulder doesn’t like it 😆
