  • Thank you for the suggestions, I tried a bunch and nothing immediately fit. Most were either too complicated for me to create the relationships or I couldn’t get the thing locally running (or there wasn’t a self hosted option)… Basically stupid user syndrome 😑 😤.

    So went back to the drawing board of writing a webapp and after a few experiments realised that… All I needed was a calendar with pre-canned event titles, groups for colour to highlight different events… silly me, all I needed was a calendar…

    Ended up re-inventing something looking very much like a calendar… sigh… do I carry on or look for some kind of lightweight calendar :/ Just need to have ability to quickly create pre-canned events, would be nice if the events could be related…

    On the other hand, its kinda fun to re-invent a calendar haha!

    Here is a colour version… totally a calendar 🤣



  • Looking to replicate something like this (with a weekly/monthly/ect views, maybe monthly view can look different since it would be too long to scroll, but anyway, it looks like arse but was just giving it a go), but didn’t want to have to create a full webapp (with CRUD data inserts, pagination ect… its certainly doable, but just annoying to implement). This is just a simple index view in a random framework I found, with some real, but pre-canned data via db seeding (so at least I can re-create it easily). Just thought there could be something easier that already exists and i wouldn’t have to be re-inventing the wheel. Have a paper version of this, but its too hard to keep track of different foods via paper.

    Spreadsheet sounds interesting (read easier) to try, though I am not quite sure how to do the lookup bits. Would it be something like one table (sheet) of events feeding from say, food type table (sheet) and some kind of a month view that can accumulate events on the same day?

    PS: yes got a vet appointment coming up soon.

    Spend time with your special boy, that’s the best way to make them feel better, and hopefully not any time soon, but be sure to be there to send him over the rainbow bridge when it is his time.

    A few years ago I had to say goodbye to my my first cat. It was a heartbreaking 2 weeks of very heavy ups and downs. On Christmas day, that he was sick and went into the final spiral of a terrible day and sometimes a little better, but he kept getting worse and worse generally, until the vet agreed that he wouldn’t recover. He was put to sleep in my and wife’s hands. Sometimes you have to help them to not suffer. And honestly we breathed a very heavy sigh of relief after knowing that he wouldn’t be suffering any more and his final moments were with the humans he loved. Cats try their best not to show pain and discomfort so when they do, you know its really bad.
