Coding, how I’ve missed thee
Today, I’ve spent every minute that Isabel has been nursing or asleep on me, one-handedly clicking my on-screen keyboard to try and get three different projects done. YES! Three! Didn’t anyone ever tell you that mums are THE BEST at multitasking?
Anyway. So, my problem is that all three are secret secret hush hush, which means no gossiping about them on here yet. But… at least it reminded me how much I love coding. I was beginning to slip into a dizzying stream of consciousness where it felt like being a mum was all I could do. There’s definitely PHP ninja in there somewhere.
Warning
This post is over 6 months old. This means that, despite my best intentions, it may no longer be accurate. Age, motherhood, experience, loss... these things have all changed me from when this blog was started back in the heady (ha) days of my youth.
As much as I would like to go back and edit 10 years of archives to provide an insight into the 'me' of now — to update coding snippets and revise website advice — it would probably take years to do so (by which point I'd have to start again!) This would defeat the point of keeping these archives anyway.
Please take these posts for what they are: a brief look into my past, my history, my journey.

Yay for coding. And it’s not like being "just a mum" isn’t any mean feat either, you know. I’d say you’ve got your hands full just with that. :)

You do know that Izzy could lay in a bassinet beside you & then you could use both hands & not have to use the on screen keyboard. *ducks the fists that come flying at her* But then that is just me.

Always remember you are Jem Turner and not just a Mum or a coder or a friend or… You are all you want to be and don’t let people or motherhood fool you into thinking you are only… :-)

Woohoo ninja! Can’t wait to see what you’ve been coding up.

Ohh I know about one!! I didn’t know you were coding it, though! Teehee!

Are you finally going to start that online pornography website you were telling me about? :P Mmm, gossip gossip.
