So, mine hasn't happened yet, but it's happening this weekend and I'm soooo ready for it. 😀

I'm headed up to New River Gorge in West Virginia for a long weekend trip — gonna camp 1 night and then spend 2 nights at a small, but modern-looking cabin. Here's a little pic of the place:

I think my biggest shot for me this week is publishing this article

This article for the first time has been featured on both Hashnode and Medium
but unfortunately not on Dev.to 😅

Releasing my second helper webproject for my family to ease a task (drawing lots for Secret Santa gifts) and to learn alot for myself during development. Could already show the app to my aunts and they were very enthusiastic to use it this year.

I participate in Hacktoberfest for the first time. Not only am I trying to contribute but also maintain my own projects which I created for the CodeNewbie Community. I spend the past few weeks working on it, continually improving and adding things, but I hope it will help some people get into Open Source, on the long run help them finding a job.

Thanks for checking on us, @michaeltharrington , keeps me going 😇

After months of work, I finally finished all the features I wanted to have in the next major version of my open-source tool BundleMon

Released RC version today, hopefully in a few weeks will release the final version.

I did the refactoring of the whole Terraform project of one of our client. The basis of it is our internal Terraform cookie cutter. It proved to be working, so I will be proposing the refactor to our internal project. I am excited, I cleaned up all the project will modules and it is making everything more readable.
