Feb – Learn to Write Code

echo “Speak My Language”;

02 FebruaryBrooke Ignet Hocker

Feb 1….the goal for February is to learn how to code.  I landed on this goal for a number of reasons:  1.  my husband can code and is one of the smartest people I know, so I thought this may give me a little peek into his world.  2.  Even though I’m not in a Read more

Syntactic Sugar

05 FebruaryBrooke Ignet Hocker

Feb 3…You will never know what happened on Feb 3.  My browser died when I was at the point of inserting a photo and my post went to blog Heaven to live with all the other posts from authors who did not hit “save draft.” Feb 4…On my way to work this morning I heard Read more

Who you boolean?

08 FebruaryBrooke Ignet Hocker

Feb 6…I worked a half day from home and then headed to Indian Lake for a women’s retreat.  The kind of retreat with yoga pants, a live stream of Christian speakers, an excessive amount of homemade cookies, and free journals.  Per my last post, I had downloaded the codecademy app on my phone so I Read more

Looping the Loop

11 FebruaryBrooke Ignet Hocker

Feb 9…Didn’t get home from work until 7pm so you can imagine my excitement about coding after a long day.  Thankfully, 30 minutes isn’t that long so it’s easier to just get it in vs complain about it (warm up for next month’s goal of not complaining about anything for 31 days).  I logged onto Read more

Candy Coded

14 FebruaryBrooke Ignet Hocker

Feb 12….a Thursday.  After a pretty busy week at work so far I was headed to lift with my trainer in the evening.  After lifting, staying for cardio, and making a pit stop for Valentine’s treats for my coworkers…I didn’t even get home until 9pm.  Theme of the week.  By the time I did all Read more

The Site that Never Launched

18 FebruaryBrooke Ignet Hocker

Feb 15….a Sunday after putting in way too many hours catching up on work stuff.  I have found after 15 days of coding, my mood is so…..ugh.  Irritable, I guess.  I pride myself on being a fairly positive person and tend to keep things in perspective fairly well, but, man.  I have just been so Read more

‘Merica

22 FebruaryBrooke Ignet Hocker

Feb 19…After my 3rd day of a 3 day training class at work, I came home and changed clothes and hit up Zumba and then drove home.  And then drove back to Zumba because I forgot my boots there.  And then drove home again.  And then played with the garage door for a bit because Read more

What the pho?

26 FebruaryBrooke Ignet Hocker

Feb 23….Looks like I’m averaging 1 lost blog entry per month.  I wrote this once and thanks to my attempts at inserting a photo on my iPad, this day got erased.  Just watch this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKL4lBlmeXE)  because that’s what I did on day 23 and that’s all that matters. Feb 24…Work day and an hour Read more
