I’m keeping the update short and sweet tonight. I got A LOT done today. However, my amazing wife has let me code all day and into the night on her birthday. Anything important I took notes on today I’ll throw in tomorrow’s post. It’s time to spend some time with her. Time spent today: 9:15 Time spent total: 56:35 Lessons completed today: 13 Lessons completed total: 247

Notes which of course I’ll share:

Today was strong work. I finished Procedural Ruby! Now I have Object Oriented Ruby which has final projects and I’m done with the Ruby section!

I got a lot done this morning. Especially after the coffee kicked in. When I started I was definitely not 100% awake. I even did some extra credit on a lab which I typically do not do. I’ve never been the type to want to score 105 on a test because I aced it AND the extra credit. I did this one specifically because I knew it wouldn’t take much time as I was writing a generic method for a specific method I had just completed.

Today was a slow day. The kids didn’t cooperate this morning and I got zero coding done before all three children were awake. That’s fine though. I didn’t expect every day to go perfectly to plan. It was actually a nice refresher day not starting with coding but still getting the rest of my morning routine done. I did get in my night time session (minus a few minutes for good night kisses).
