    I’ve been writing a lot lately, working to get the content calendar ahead so I can focus on the next course.

    A lot of the content talks about Underpin at least a little bit. The funny thing is, it’s causing me to open discover opportunities to improve the framework.

    I think I’d you’re building a site that’s only using WordPress, making it headless for the sake of being headless is not a great idea. Lots of extra work, and overhead.

    I present the case for “nearly headless”, using @Alpine_JS

    I think the best way to approach WordPress blocks is in a plugin, not a theme. This allows you to re-use the blocks even when your theme changes. Then you can just re-style the blocks that are already in your content.

    Here’s how I approach that.

    I’ve been wanting to build this for a while now. Asynchronous tasks and background tasks are now available within Underpin, thanks to @dliciousbrains’ awesome processing package.

    I can’t be certain but I think it’s raining there 😅

    Laundry is kicking our ass today. It’s so freaking windy!

    We hand washed a load, and that went fine but we really don’t have a proper clothesline set up, so we’re using the awning, and the wind is whipping it all over the place. Not ideal.

    So I guess I know our next priority!

    One of our biggest plastic producers is milk jugs, so We are going to try replacing milk with oat milk. Can’t believe how easy this was to make.

    It’s way cheaper, too.

    Every time we make an environmentally friendly choice, it tends to simultaneously be less-expensive.

    Can someone recommend a person who offers video editing services? I’m going to have a fair amount of work in coming months and could really use the help.

    I just updated my projects page on my site. I have a lot of moving parts right now, but I’ve never felt so productive, and on-top of things without simultaneously feeling overwhelmed and stressed.
