I was quite tired this morning, so I could not do my usual early morning blog "work" today. Although I had a good extra couple of hours of sleep, I have a lot to do this afternoon in terms of posting new content, revising some code, reading today's headlines, and doing my usual house chores. I am not stressed out though, because we have a beautiful weather today (with sunshine and clear skies), and I get to work outside in my backyard, which is surrounded by the sounds of birds and gentle breeze.

Now, I have planned to do the following today before dinner time. Most of the to-do items are usual, but there are some special projects I like to mention:

• As all ways there will be two news abstracts posted at DS NETS. There seems to be a lot of news in the political sphere and a lot of violence in the Middle East, but I am probably going to cover some other news that is less depressing.
• My idea of converting View Focus Online to an online magazine was a stretch. I had a cool idea of having additional sections within the website, but I realized that I could not keep up the updating work. So I have to restructure the website to a simple blog (like DayMindXPression) and reduce the number of sections and categories I have over there.
• For DayMindXPression I will be covering the areas of music, and I will share some of my favorite producers and music with you. I will also do a little research on online learning and post some websites that might be in interest to check out.

This is quite a lot of things to do in one day, but I enjoy doing these things. One tip I strongly urge you to follow is to work outside whenever you have the chance. With a laptop and a wireless connection I can be as productive as I work in my desk.
