TTSS: a notebook on life.

It’s been pretty quiet here, I know. I’ve been on holiday, and then returned to needing to be with family due to sad news. Last week was my first week back to work. I took it easy, yet I had to submit a self-review. By the time Friday came I around, I was too out…

I’ve now tried the 3 reflection frameworks I mentioned. I didn’t love the last one as I found it the hardest to write. The one focusing on ‘what I noticed, what I learned, and what’s next‘ was my favourite – it’s simple and I’m all for that. That’s why this edition of Weeknotes returns to…

Last week I went back to my Weeknotes roots with them being about reflection. I tried one framework so righto, on to reflection framework #2. 🛑 Stop 🚀 Start ✅ Continue

I’ve been working on one main project this week – a nice change from constant context switching. I’m pretty sure we haven’t talked about this project at any update calls so I’ll keep my trap shut for now. Defining terms from the secret-ish project. Then, adding them to our guidelines and an internal word list.…

Woo, here we are again. Here’s a snippet of what’s gone down this week. Prepping for my growth check in. I log everything I work on and capture wins as well as opportunities. I find it easier to do self-reviews this way as I’ve got something to jog my memory. I’d got a bit lazy…

It’s been a week of reviewing content. Lots of cross-checking staging environments with designs and flagging fixes need. Here’s a quick summary… Proofing (and testing) our payments project. Reviewing content for 2 key projects. One I can’t say much about, and the other is optimising a feature that’s already out in the world. We have…

I’ve not been on top form this week. A cold in summer sucks. Anyway, here’s a quick summary of this week. Picking a terminology test back up. We were waiting for funds to launch and now we have the dosh, I’m hoping I can hit publish on this either today or Monday. Completed the prioritisation…

I was sick for 3 weeks earlier this year and I’ve found it hard to get back in to a groove with exercising. This week I’ve declared war with my wobbly bits and have been getting back to it in the gym. Apologies for the overshare – this is in a bid to hold myself…

I need coffee and music today, so that’s going to be the order of the day. I’ve switched on the radio and, “Oh my god I’m living the dream!” is belting out of it. That’s not where I’m at RN, but I’ll try and embody it. Maybe after my first cup of jitter juice. This…

I’m keeping today’s post short (I skipped last week’s as I was swimming in the Adriatic sea enjoying my hols). Aside from catching up, this week has looked a bit like this… Sending a UX Writing confidence survey. I send these twice a year to people the business. The results help shape training and other…

Hello again, Friday. I’m going to get straight into what’s gone on this week. Here goes… I facilitated a workshop about UX Writing. This is the one I’ve been working on for a while. It’s taken longer than expected to put together for 2 reasons. One: juggling lots of other tasks at the same time.…

July next week. And yesterday I saw something about 6 months of the year have passed, how will you spend the remaining 6? You could see that as panic inducing. I’m choosing to see it as being intentional about the rest of the year. Panic can stick it. Here’s a peek into this week has…
