Reviewing an old todo list

- Goal 2
- [x] Setup Blog
- [ ] Add comments - Do I want this?
- [ ] Add tags
- [ ] Add RSS Feed
- Goal 3
- [ ] Recurring - 4 blog posts a week for the month of July (20 by the end of the month) - Do I want a checkbox to let me
- General Site goals
- [ ] Generate about page
- [ ] Re-buy domain & Connect
- [ ] Work page
Lemme write a bit about how this is all looking
Goal 1
Looking through this goal 1 was more about learning new things. Ive been learning as I persue this but definitely have not done all the points that I wish I had. This is all interesting info and I'm not sure how I want to play with alot of them. That said - Ive always dreamed of a button on the page to change the color pallet so maybe I just do that.
Goal 2
This area is probably my best spot right now! I did add comments, tags, and an rss feed to all blog posts. Feels really good!
Goal 3
This was a pipe dream I had a lot of personal stuff going on last year. I think if I can end up doing a blog post a month I'll be really proud of my work.
General site goals
Generate about page - this has transformed to my now page Which I'm pretty proud of. I have a load of automation with that, have messed with vibe coding, and like to show it off. All that said - I'm disappointed with the styling of that page (and the whole site) so maybe that is worth some effort
Rebuy domain - done deal! I'm really proud of getting this back up and running - neat that I have a space in the web that is all my own
Work Page - This is something I'd like to do, but im unsure how important it is for me
Going Forward
I have a couple of ideas for the site and this blog. I have two blog ideas that are early on but wanted to get going and want to focus on a style overhaul. The blog ideas are:
- Writing about my recommendation asks a third of the way through
- Balancing typing with forward movement
Then as for the style overhaul I dont know where to begin. I think I need to spend some time doing research of what I like then try applying it to this.
An additional spot I was thinking of is making a image viewer for my sons pictures. that way he can show off his pictures in a safe space
