Let us know where in the world you are!
This week, I am…
Researching WP themes for a site project I’m on. Getting distracted by Gatsby and wondering if I should be researching that instead. Definitely looking for advice!

Helping my two new kitties adapt to our home.
Motivated by:
It’s definitely still wintry-feeling outside, but the trees are starting to bud and get ready for spring. Which means I’m feeling compelled to start some seeds for my garden and clean up my house/inbox/asana task list.
Your turn! Here are a few questions to get you started:
- What are you working on this week?
- What is motivating (or demotivating) you this week?
- What are you learning?
- Any good videos/podcasts/articles you can recommend?
I nominate @CodeChefMarc, @justkristin, @katie.richards, @kelly & @JohnRichardsII!

Preparing for rebrand/relaunch things in the middle of staffing overhauls brought on by multiple closures… “But deadlines!” cry the C-suiters. Gah.
Trying to work toward some semblance of fitness via indoor rowing, lunchtime walks to 7-Eleven with my husband, and babysitting a 2-year-old Troll.
Finishing a hat I knitted! Belated b-day present for my spouse.
Working on Pantheon’s Changelog, new & updated documentation on Integrated Composer, coming features, and on accessibility testing.
Talking with colleagues about information architecture & content design, and improving publishing workflows for internal content.
Reading about React, Tailwind, re-usable components & content APIs.
I look forward to it, and will start it after Moby Dick and another book I bought this morning because the local indie told me to via email, tho I can’t remember the title.
