    CSS has gotten so, so good over the last few years. So many things that were really difficult to do are now trivial.

    I finished reading Profit First earlier this month, and it feels like it’s going to be a game changer for my business budgeting. Highly recommended read if you’re trying to do better with your business finances.

    When it’s really windy like this I still feel my stomach drop every time the wind gusts. Low key anxiety from when I lived in a camper, because I’d always worry that I left the awning out ????.

    JSON-Based Component Rendering Proof-of-concept

    I think this is a key component of the future of WordPress, since doing it this way would enable any future admin UI to work natively in an iOS application as well as a web application. You would still have two apps, but everything that actually renders the output is based on the JSON, and therefore can be extended easily.

    Getting ready to take Devin and Ben to their grandparent’s house. Devin asked Kate “Are we going to bring the house” ????

    We lived full-time in an RV for about 1,300 days, and tonight is the last night I will spend in one as a full-timer for the foreseeable future. The blow is softened knowing that I have a king size mattress waiting for me at the house ????.

    All joking aside I’m so, SO excited to be moving back to town. I love RV life, but we’re pretty tired, and have no wanderlust left in the tank right now.

    This is my first time winterizing a camper, and oh my god this should not be this difficult. Turns out Leela doesn’t have an easy bypass system so I have to go get a hose to connect directly to the pump. Real PITA.

    I’ve really been enjoying reading the Factorio Friday Facts, a weekly blog that talks about progress of the upcoming expansion to Factorio. It’s been design-centric, and quite technical. Also, I can’t wait for this game!

    Welp, it’s happening. After 4 years of full-time travel, we’ve decided it is time to slide back into the rhythms of “normal” life, and signed a lease to move into a house in our hometown of Dover, OH for December 1st(!)

    I love the time we spent traveling, and will always have the life-changing experiences that we had on the road with me. But yeah, I’m done. It’s been 4 years and I’ve got no more go in my go yonders.

    I’m sure it will come back, and I envision that I’ll full time again in the future, but for now, we just want to slow down a bit.

    Kates baking bread and I’m making enough pizza dough to start a pizzeria. It’s nice to have an actual kitchen again!
