Nope, I didn’t read this week, so unsurprisingly, I didn’t make much progress on this.

Weekly Progress

LPTHW – I interacted in a lot more python this week, but I did not get the things on my syllabus taken care of.
EBA – No progress.
Book Review – Nope.
Other Post– Yes! May 2017 Debt Repayment and Understanding Debt Snowflakes

About Page on Portfolio Site

Yes! I’m pretty happy with my new about page. Direct quote:

I’ve finally taken a look at your website
and it’s awesome!
Really powerful

Last week’s goals:

Finish Broke Millennial by Erin Lowry

Yes! I finished Broke Millennial and published my review of it which you can see here.

Weekly Progress

LPTHW – I am still on track with the syllabus that I laid out earlier this year! I can’t believe I’ll be starting Exercise 40 next week! You can see all my code on Github. I’m particularly proud of my debt snowflake calculator.
EBA – No progress.
Book Review – As I mentioned above, I published my review of Broke Millennial which you can see here.
Other Post– I published a collection of thought in a post titled “Life Lately.”

New Resume

Yes! I finally have a resume that I’m happy with. I’m lucky to have gotten all the feedback I did! Thanks so much to Laila, Heather, Justin, and Bailey, amongst the others, who gave me feedback!

About Page

I didn’t even touch this.

Plan for Dad’s Visit

Yes! My dad comes tomorrow and I could not be happier. The guest room is all set up for him. Bo is very excited to have company for mid-afternoon naps.

Organize Bill Folder

Oh my goodness, I threw away SO much trash! I went through every paper and am now happy with the organization system in place. It’s cool because I’ve divided bills not my category but by date and location (e.g. our other home in 2017 vs our current  home in 2017). This is important because I’ll need it stored that way for tax purposes.

On to the main event…

My dad is coming into town this week, so I’ll be doing the minimumish! I’m okay with that!

Last week’s goals:

Finish 31 Days to Radically Reduce Your Expenses by Kalyn Brooke

Okay, so this was a good read, but certainly nothing special. I’m really excited about Post Grad which I’m also 130 pages into (it was a big week for reading) and then Broke Millennial which I’ll be reading right after!

Learn Python the Hard Way, Week 1

I created a syllabus for this and will be working through it one week at a time!

EBA Unit 3, Part 2

Unfortunately, I didn’t work on this, but I’m hoping to wrap up this week!

This week’s goals:

I’ve lost my weekends. Traveling for Easter, cleaning out the gutters, painting the kitchen- these are the things that occupy my weekends and my time. While I complain now, I know there is nothing I’d rather do. We painted the hallway on Sunday, convinced that we’d have to do a second coat and bummed that that would be the case. We left the house for a friend’s surprise birthday party and when we came home the hallways were beautifully dried. No second coat needed. There’s nothing I would rather have done. It was beautiful. And we did that. It’s a different kind of accomplishment.

On to the main event…
