My usual outdoor activities started closer to 5 o'clock, once the weather became sunny and dry. Despite the rain earlier in the day, the ground was still comfortable enough for a bike ride, so I headed out as usual, wearing my damaged New Balance sneakers. I had cut them during one of my previous bike rides while trying to avoid obstacles on a forest trail, but they're still comfortable enough to keep wearing. Other than that, the ride was pretty ordinary. I cycled through forests and along highways, where I noticed horses and a wild rabbit sitting on the forest trail. It didn't get scared of me—it just noticed me, looked around for a moment, and then calmly continued on its way.
I spent my whole day optimizing my blog's pages, and honestly, it made sense to spend my day on that. At the same time, it was also a productive and really interesting refactoring of my codebase that helped me improve my programming skills. It gave me unexpected but successful results, and I finally reached my goal according to Google PageSpeed. I also noticed and could actually feel how my pages had started loading much faster.
I didn’t manage to finish all my promises from yesterday’s post, but I did get all my main tasks done. I went to my bank, extended my debit cards, and got some certificates about my account. Then I visited my barber for a short haircut—it cost 700 rubles, about $9, and included a head wash. That was my main goal, and I got it done easily, no problems.
I didn’t have time to walk around or visit my favorite places. The weather wasn’t great—snow had melted, it was around 0 or maybe +1, and everything was full of puddles. So instead, I stayed warm and dry in my car while driving around.
My weekend morning started a bit late—I slept until 10 AM. After waking up, I didn’t feel like getting out of bed and starting my routine. My bed seemed to pull me in like a magnet, or maybe I had just put down roots during the night. So instead of getting up, I stayed in bed, enjoying the quiet time. I kept promising myself I would get up in ten minutes, over and over again, until finally, around 11 AM, I got up.
Today was extremely busy. I woke up at 10 AM and, after my morning routine, immediately dove into completing my blog updates. Yesterday, I had shared my plans and activities, and today I was determined to finish all the updates as quickly as possible. However, I ended up spending the entire day troubleshooting bugs and errors. Fortunately, I managed to finalize my database structure and implement a comment rating system. Once my tasks were complete, I finally allowed myself to relax, admired my progress, and went for a walk.
The day was quiet and enjoyable. I stayed at home and, as part of my daily routine, watched the snow fall nonstop. I even received emergency alerts on my phone about the snowfall, but it didn’t feel particularly serious. The snow was falling steadily throughout the day, and by evening the roads and sidewalks were completely covered. City services had to work nonstop, and the whole city felt slower than usual. Personally, I didn’t find it inconvenient at all. On the contrary, the atmosphere felt calm and peaceful. From my window, everything looked white and quiet, and the hill nearby was completely covered in snow, almost invisible.
