Sep 28–Oct 4, 2026
I was admitted to the hospital and had surgery to remove the metal hardware from my arm. Since I had to fast, I checked in the day before surgery, had the operation the next day, and went home the day after that. Fortunately, there were no problems with my nerves, and I could move my fingers and hand. Throughout my stay, all I really wanted was to get home and rest comfortably.
After leaving the hospital, I spent most of my time in bed. Even when I tried to sit at my desk and work, my left arm was uncomfortable, so I couldn’t stay there for long.
It’s been a year since I released I Need That Widget. I hadn’t planned for it to be my first app, but the simple paid app I put together in a hurry after breaking my left arm has already reached its first anniversary. Since it simply expands on the widgets in Apple Calendar, I worried about whether it had room to grow. But I’ve received positive reviews and feedback, and using the app myself has helped me discover more ways to improve it.
So, if possible, I’d like to release an anniversary update this month. There’s so much I want to do, and seeing other apps doing well sometimes leaves me feeling a little discouraged. Still, I’ll keep carefully tending to this app so it can find its place as a companion to Apple Calendar, rather than just another calendar app. After all, I use it myself, and users have been telling me it’s working well for them, too.
I didn’t get much done, but I spent the week thinking of it as a chance to take a short break.
My week…
