29 days

Writing in public again also means planning in public again, doesn’t it? So here is my overall idea for February.

Let’s start with health and fitness, as that is the most important. According to Strava, I’ve walked 65.1 kilometres in 12 hours 34 minutes 54 seconds on 17 days in January. I plan to keep walking at least three times a week, so my health keeps improving.

I also need to fix sleeping again, as I’m a fan of the snooze button currently. Sleep Cycle tells me I’ve got an average score of 79%, but I don’t trust that fully. But that might ease itself as soon as I start reading regularly and before bed again. So the plan is to wake up between 6 and 6:30 again (depending on when Sleep Cycle thinks I’m in the right sleep phase), no matter when I’m going to sleep. So although I should be asleep between 10 and 10:30 I won’t make that a fixed rule. As waking up daily at 6:30 will make me tired enough to go to sleep earlier anyway.

Then I want to achieve some content creation goals throughout the month. Of course, I want to continue writing daily on here, but I also plan to finish up my The Witcher Enhanced Lets Play on my YouTube Channel. I played it more than a year ago live on Trovo and released the Episodes afterwards on YouTube. Since I want to finish the game, it is time to finally pick it up again. I also need to build KITT (out of Knight Rider) further. I already got two packages of parts again that need assembling and thus a YouTube video. Besides that, I’m thinking about starting a Timberborn Lets Play but with a different editing style. Currently, I’m mass recording stuff and split it into 30 minute parts afterwards. The “classical” Lets Play style. But nowadays heavy edited videos are “trending”, so I might want to try that out, although it will make the whole process more complicated. Some YouTubers heavily influenced me on this new style: Mr Beardstone, FoxyNo Tail and most recently Bitz. Bitz also has a new behind the scenes Twitch channel where he shows his recordings and editing, pretty interesting to watch.

Of course, working on the totalcostofownership.app Website / App should also fit somewhere in between the above. I want to finish a landing page and some copy text at least, so it doesn’t look as empty. Maybe I’ve got even time to start thinking about Database stuff.

Oh, and there is also finishing up the small photovoltaic project on my balcony. I’ll pull some wires through the walls with my brother this weekend, to have a separate power line to my main breakers. It isn’t necessary, but cleaner.

So, what are you up to?
