I’m going to try the Cards Theme to see if it’s a good way to implement my idea of a static home page with cards or buttons for different sections. I really like Tiny Theme, but this early days are appropriate for experimentation. The other way is to learn a bit more of HTML and CSS, but there’s plenty of time to stop being lazy. Not today.

I want to find a way to use static pages to build my digital garden. I may use the blog format in some places, but there needs to be different sections, primarily static, and an Index home page that showcases and links to the those sections. First order of business, start thinking about the sections. Designing the site will come later.

Today I woke up at 4am. I have a long commute, so I took my car to work and arrived at my office before 6am. Other days I take the train, which is a longer travel, but it’s cheaper, more ecological and it gives me a place for focused work. It’s 11:30pm and I just finished to review my tasks of the day and prepared them for tomorrow. I have two big deadlines for Friday and today I did not push forward one single inch in any of them. Still, as I was reviewing the day, I saw that I did check off many other tasks that also needed to be done. Some clients were benefited from that work, some others are still waiting for me.

So if I intend to grow my small corner of the world in this blog, I’d better start. I learned from Chris Aldrich that, if I am serious about something, I have to stick to it. He was talking about handwriting and taking notes or journaling with analog tools, but I’m going to take his advice and make it my own. If I want to be serious about my particular digital corner, I’d better stick to it.

So here I am, wrapping up the week and getting ready for Monday. I went through my OmniFocus review and I have a couple of dozen of things I have to do tomorrow, so it was not a pleasant review. I positively know I won’t do them all, so I marked my priorities and blocked a few slots in my calendar to make some sort of a plan. And hope for the best. But this week I moaned enough already, so I’m not going to bitch any more about how miserable my every day routine is 😉.

In micro.blog, I met a very nice guy this weekend [Michael H. Gerloff aka @kulturnation](https://micro.blog/kulturnation). He’s german, he writes in English in micro.blog and he seems a very interesting and nice guy. So that’s a good note for the week.

Oh, one thing I wanted to say a long time ago. I’ve tried mechanic keyboards enough, I’ve given them every chance. I don’t like them. I’m very happy with my Apple Magic Keyboard. It’s already a few years old and it still works like a charm and gives me my best writing experience. I always go back to this keyboard. At work I use a Logitech K380 that I like, too. But my home Magic Keyboard is the best. One thing I learned during the pandemic lockdown was to type properly with all my fingers and, although I still make many typos and my WPM is not championship-worthy, I’m the most fluent with the Magic Keyboard.

There, I’m going to bed. Tomorrow starts early.
