I feel like I want to get my morning routine nailed down now. There has been a lot of change since 2026 started. Not so much in my environment, more so in my daily activities, my goals, and my way I'm parsing the day. I love a bit of change. It's great to throw the cards up in the air every so often and see how they land. But with that, chaotic shuffling of the deck, we must seek some stability. Ground new routines into place. See what works and does not work. And then reassess. We have the most beautiful of months ahead. April, May and June. My intention is to bed in my new objections. My goals, my routines. Give them a chance to flourish as the sun increases it influence this spring and opens the door into summer. And it starts with today. No major breakthroughs, not major changes, no changing the world. Just enjoying the day while following my routines.

My professional and personal projects. I have lots to keep me busy for the next three months. Do a great job at work, and make progress on my personal projects. There is more than enough to keep me a occupied in a given day. It's about focusing on what matters most, and I'm very grateful to have an abundance of choices.

Well, I'm pretty proud of my website so far. The base functionality is nearly there. There I'm experimenting with different features. Some things come in. Some things go out. The biggest limiting factor now is how many tokens I'm allowed to use each day. My GitHub issues keep growing and my token limit won't allow me to get through them fast enough. There will be a time where I need to choose to invest more in my Claude subscription. I'm not there yet, but I might have to make that decision soon if I'm going to continue to develop this website at the place I wanted to develop it. I have to say I'm really enjoying it. Such a fun project!
