I canceled Framer and built my personal site with Cursor & AI.

The data usage of this site is pretty low so (I think) the hosting is almost free on Vercel!

I'm having fun building different things with AI now :)

Wow I got many replies from the newsletter I sent out today -

because of THIS change:

- I stopped thinking it’s a newsletter
- I focused all my energy on the topic I want discuss
- I wrote just a few lines and share that essay via a link

Who would have thought?

They got me! 😱

So many people recommending books these few days so I'm going to read.

Got a few in mind:

1. Good Energy
2. The Comfort Crisis
3. The Anxious Generation
4. Read Write Own
5. The Automatic Customer
6. The Courage to be Disliked

This hit me today, so want to share :)

I lost … did a blind tasting against my sisters.

We tasted: Coke, Coke Zero, and Pepsi Zero

I couldn’t figure out Coke vs Coke Zero 🤣🤣

I think I'm doing it right

I’m finding ways to recover from burnout and a lack of motivation earlier this year.

One way is to sign up for races!

Need some personal, fitness goals to bring my energy back (it’s working!)

This is me finishing a 16km trail run today 😁

I asked my younger daughter if she likes butterfly or bird more.

This is what she said:

Do you know what’s going on?

What can I say? Thank you creators and YouTube ❤️

Oh hey! I think I got it!

Took 3 tutorial videos and 6 attempts wohooo!

Got a wedding to attend tomorrow. After 34 years, I still don’t know how to tie a bow tie so here I am…

Wow look what I found
