I haven't forgotten about Python
Mar. 20th, 2026 02:30 pmAs I was telling my dietician just yesterday, ADHD medicine can help you focus but not necessarily on the right things.
I wasn't expecting to obtain a knitting machine so soon and thought I'd fill the time learning Python. To be fair, it still works out because knitting machines are quite long and I only have one place (my work desk) where I can use it for now. So the Python is something I'm trying to learn instead of doomscrolling reddit when my brain gets "bleh" from work.
I'm about halfway through the first Python course on Codex.io. So far it's been pretty cool and interesting. I did sign up for the subscription and I'm hoping I won't need it for long, get through the python and intermediate course and then unsubscribe and start doing some things on my own.
I have a few list of ideas of some things to keep my brain going.
it's true that Python isn't that hard once you get the hang of it. And using Visual code as atext editor really helps with my trouble on indents and syntax. I thought it would feel like a cheat but in reality it's helping me renforce some good coding hygheine? is that a phrase? Maybe I just made that up.
Overall I've been feeling a little overwhelmed lately, I think I just need some sleep and some time to clear out my house. I love being a mom and part of that is accepting that I have to time manage better. Still haven't gotten the hang of it.
