End of Week Update - 007

By A.A. Lopez

    I don't know if this week was a lot or if the adrenaline from last week is finally crashing. Oh, right forgot to mention: my car got broken into and almost stolen, that was fun. Thankfully, all that was taken was a bag full of camping supplies, and the only damage was to the car door handle and the ignition switch (insurance covered it all). But after that this past week has been a total blur.

    Though I can say for certainty that I did accomplish a lot of the things I set out to do this week. So maybe the tiredness is from trying to do everything all at once. Well, let's actually get into it.

Accomplishments:

• Completed and Delivered the GUI toolset
• Completed the presentation with glowing marks and ready to present next week
• Updated the name of my chrome extensions to UNL and ACP (Updated Notes Log and Airtable CSV Parser)
• CC Tool... This one had some alterations so it's now a Pathway maker, but I did get the folder ready along with two different UI mockups
• Also, also learned how to create functional buttons in Lucid, so now the UI mockup acts like the actual extension would

    And looking back at the SoW for this week, I did everything I set out to do. Yeesh, no wonder I'm tired, and on top of that had to handle 3 different specialty projects, give a full rundown of some rulesets to the higherups, and even advocate to keep a legacy program around longer because we ran into a huge problem that almost caused a delay for something due in 4 days. Gods, I'm tired.

    Well, I'm heading back to my parent's this weekend and spending time up there for the rest of the week there. So a lot of the projects I'm working on for this blog will be on hold until I get back. Though I will tease that I'm going to try something experimental when I get back in September. I'll most likely post a SoW and EoW for next week, but maybe they'll just be "I'm alive" posts.

    With that said, I'm out, peace.

LESSON OF THE WEEK: Adrenaline and caffeine are the devil's plaything and eyes' worst nightmare.
