The Diary Game (12/11/2024) - Another work shift and developing a Mini Web App

Introduction

It's another beautiful Tuesday with a touch of the harmattan gradually descending upon us. It was so cloudy outside, and this is one of many indications of the season ahead of us. Let me walk you through a beautiful diary post today.

My Diary

After a work-free weekend, wifey is resuming another 3-day morning shift today. As it's been for months on my wife's working days, I've remained the first person to wake up to do some chores, cook and make warm water for the twins to bathe.

My alarm rang at 5 am, and I quickly set to work; I moved to the backyard to clean the chicken's cage and then gave them feeds and water while the kids' bathing water was on fire. We are all set around 7:30 and I'm driving them down to work this morning. I loaded the kids into the car, and we were ready to zoom off.

My wife took some pictures of the kids when we were about to leave the house and some selfies while I drove.

Olivia remained her cheerful little angel self who wanted to get hold of everything at the slightest opportunity, while Chloe was a bit clingy this morning, craving momma's attention. We managed that quite well, knowing that they would sleep off once we hit the road.

After about a 30-minute drive, we arrived at the institution health centre where my wife works, and I waited for some minutes before leaving.

I won't be using the institution's ICT centre as my workstation today because I have a few things to attend to in town, and one important thing is the renewal of my car papers, which expires today. I was caught quite unaware because I thought I had a week more before it expires. I'm driving back alone this time and I captured a few beautiful town pictures.

I was going to visit a licensing office for the car's paper renewal, but fortunately, the woman who used to help me told me to send the pictures of the expiring one and promised to get it all done before the end of the day. As such, I only drove down home and started working on a mini Web App that randomly selected a certain number of users from an array.

The programming languages I used for this are typically HTML, CSS and JQuery. After about an hour, the result came out just as it was aimed to.

Over time, I have developed a hobby of taking Javascript challenges against other users, and that earns winners from each round some XP on a learning App I use. I spent some time doing that today.

At 4 pm, I drove out to pick up my people from work, and we were all back at home around 5 pm. It was a stressful day. We eventually had fried plantain and cowskin for dinner while the kids had boiled plantain before we tucked them into bed.

I spent some time working on some bugs in some of my past code projects before I decided to pen down my diary for the day. I'm calling it a day after dropping this piece in the community. See you around!
