Btw I stopped being surprised by how crazy the world can get some time ago, and for my own sanity I’ve learned not to plan any travels for late February - March. It helps a bit 🤝
I’ve been quiet lately to focus on a few personal things - and I’ll probably need another month or so. Everything is good though. Happy birthday to me 🥂🫡🫂
From the other side… we expected our home belongings from NL at the beginning of December…hopefully, we will receive them around January 🤞
And they forgot to arrange something 🥲
With Dutch services, I usually had to multiply the promised time by at least 2
Maybe not their fault, but… suspicious 😒
Tomorrow will be 2 weeks in the U.S.
It’s still early, but it feels like a parallel reality or different planet- familiar, yet VERY different (like football 😁 or the same food brands tasting different)
#1 I noticed : the service here understands the concept of underpromising and overdelivering🫂
Anyway. Fixed 🫂
💯
I’m still waiting for the day AI finally fixes all these broken websites and services I/you/we have to use 🕰️
Just like many people promised it would 👌
🤔…Microsoft?
In my dreams - yes 😄
But ask me again in a few months
I’ll be living in BelleVUE (!) btw 🥹😄
Thanks 😊

No worries - a year from now I might be on a different continent again, you never know 👀😄
📦 Moving to the US soon 🇺🇸 🥂 - so I’m selling a few things we *very unfortunately* can’t take with us.
You know… in the US, the power standard is different (something like 110-120V vs 230-240V in Europe), so some electronics aren’t compatible without bulky adapters 🥲🥲🥲
I will post it here 🔜
Every once in a while I try to make a purchase on the mobile version of the website - and nothing works 🙃
It’s an absolute nightmare. I hope their analytics will just say that customers «prefer» desktop
What if everything started going wrong the moment I stopped watching Star Wars every year… I stopped doing this about 5-6 years ago 👀🫣
I hope not!
Страшно делать громкие заявления, пока этого не случилось, но - да, скорее всего в США.
Посмотрим как пойдет 🫣😅
Our beautiful apartment in Amsterdam is now for sale: www.funda.nl/detail/43137...
After 1,5 years of pain and chemotherapy, my mom passed away today. I want to share this with someone, but I’m not ready to talk about it.
Just 59 years old. So unfair.
(no need to say anything please)
I almost never go to my GP (it’ll go away by itself), but when I do - only if I’m in real pain - I wait about 2 weeks for the GP appointment, and then at least another 1,5 months for a specialist (aka real doctor 😁)
There are many good things in the Netherlands, but not this one
When starting Reshaped, having a paid license kept me going but also felt wrong sometimes. I wanted to give back more to the community. After 5 years – it is finally happening. Reshaped React and Figma libraries are now open-source.

+ legacy code that no one knows how to run
I’m slowly returning from the most wonderful vacation of my life 💕✨🥂
Let’s see what I’ve missed on the «internets» 🫣
sorry for your loss 💔

I’m going to have at least 4 farewell parties - one for each full year I’ve been at the company 😁
Tomorrow is the second one 🤝💁🏻♀️
I worked way too late last night, again- what’s wrong with me 🤣😭
Может она уволилась 😁
А если серьезно - там на сайте можно забукать выезд специалиста, в профиле. Я давно не пользовалась, но говорят, что сервис удобный 🫣
Ooooo WOW!! 🫨🥳🥹
This month has been wild! In the best way!
Congratulations many times 💚

What can we expect next week? 👀😅
People told me: “You can relax now!”.
But in reality - +100500 new things to finish.
tick tock, tick tock ⌛️
Дай знать, если нужно еще промо-кодов :)
Пока в очень крутой сабатикал на месяц-два 🤣
Потом будет понятнее, скорее всего что-то на US/UK маркете (если получится)
I’m proud of what I’ve accomplished at my current company, and I feel it’s the right time to move on. I’ve sent my resignation letter - just one more month 🤝👩🏻💼
Will see what’s next 🪄
I learned a lot, honestly - really happy I did it. Kind of a bummer, though: they don’t give out physical cards/certificates anymore, just a digital document.
Thanks!
So interesting!
I expected more heated discussion under the post 😅
