heap of words

I suddenly got whacked with a huge credit card outstanding payment for hosting my heap of words; and some pictures. Yes, the returns on the heap hasn’t been very positive. And after more than 9 years, the heap is still going strong, with some fans, and dare I say, it’s a go to resource for littlest known home recipes.

So I sit on my half broken down armchair musing at the bill of renewal for the heap and wonder if I should ever transit to an app where users can easily whip up their mobiles and then see the recipes that they need and then get started on cooking that essential dinner.

Then again, I am like a 1% Elon Musk. I like to engineer on my own but realise that I have a huge attention deficit to following through what I start. If only programming an app was as easy as spending an intense hour on it as opposed to many gruelling hours with no light at the end of the tunnel.

The main trouble is, I have to learn the know how to know how to programme and that fizzles out any semblance of determination I might have. And I don’t quite enjoy the idea of paying some foreign app developer to conjure up code for me.

So here’s what I would do. I will continue to pay the bills to maintain the site and then continue to add sporadic content every now and then and hope that by a stroke of miracle, the site pays itself. Haha.
