    What will you accomplish by end of January?
    Finish rewriting the front-end of my app.

    What did you do yesterday to work toward your goal?
    I made the first DB API call from new UI (getting the number of current users live for a specific domain)! Now I can start refactoring all the networking from the old codebase to the new one.

    What will you do today?
    I am feeling a bit tired from a bad night sleep and I have to return a Blue Yeti microphone to repair (faulty micro USB port). I think there will be no coding today, but I can spend the time to plan better what I'm going to do tomorrow.
