# week 20 of 2024 image here --- Hello again. Nice to be back after several months of not posting anything. I’ve been so busy with life and work that something had to get dropped from the list. So it goes. Classes are winding down for the semester and summer projects have yet to begin. I can finally breathe again after months of sinus and allergy issues. I’ve replaced the dying Windows laptop with an amazing M3 Macbook. I’m self-hosting this blog on GitHub instead of [Pika](https://pika.page/) (good people, I just wanted to build my own thing instead). share my stuff. accountability. etc.
