Coding-related: I finished the Data Transformation portion of the DS path and am edging in on the NBA trends project. (I stopped where I had been on the path and went back to complete the newly added sections of the DS path. Glad I did too! Lots of excellent content there!)

Non-coding related: I was finally able to break through and make an appointment for my Dad to get vaccinated. My Mom gets her first vax today. YAY!! I’ll take this victory! :partying_face: :partying_face:
