Week 11 (2026)2026-03-09 to 2026-03-15

Overview

This week’s feed was mostly visual: 12 posts in total, led by 9 photos, 1 video, and 2 text-only updates. The dominant mood was calm and upbeat, with repeated posts about unexpectedly good weather in Dublin, waterfront/city views, and small everyday pleasures at home. Alongside that, there were a few more personal notes on work pressure, possible side work, and saving money.

Key Themes

  • Better-than-forecast weather: Several posts highlighted clear blue skies, sunlit apartment views, blossoms, waterfront walks, and port/city scenes. One caption explicitly said the weather forecast had been inaccurate because the weather had actually been great.
  • Dublin city visuals: The week included riverfront/harbor shots, modern office blocks, cranes, boats, and a tram-side construction scene.
  • Everyday home life: Cooking, streaming, and relaxing showed up through lamb bought from 融兴行, a short video captioned “So damn good,” and watching *Rick and Morty* season 8.
  • Work and future planning: A candid post described current work at Microsoft as feeling like Amazon-level intensity, with disappointment around work-life balance and mention of longer-term plans tied to citizenship, taking a gap, and renting out the house.
  • Side income and savings: One post considered doing delivery work after chatting with barbershop owners; another shared a YouTube subscription 20% cashback screenshot.

Notable Posts

  • Mar 11: A text post about possibly trying delivery work as a way to add something new outside a not-too-busy job.
  • Mar 11: A longer reflection on work stress/WLB, comparing the current experience at Microsoft to Amazon.
  • Mar 13: A screenshot showing $2.77 cashback on a $13.99 YouTube Premium charge.
  • Mar 14: A food post showing lamb from 融兴行, followed later by a short video captioned “So damn good.”
  • Mar 14–15: A run of outdoor posts captured the week’s tone: sunny room views, waterfront scenes, harbor shots, and a Sunday “nice weather” update.

Watchlist

  • Whether the good-weather streak continues, since it shaped most of the week’s posts.
  • Whether the delivery side-gig idea goes beyond discussion.
  • Whether the work/WLB frustration eases in coming updates.
  • More of the same low-key mix of city views, food, streaming, and small money-saving finds.
