We’ve been sick with the flu the last two weeks so I’ve done zero prep for the new year. But waking up to a fresh dusting of snow was nice.
I forgot how loud an indoor water park can get. The kids are having fun though 😄
Planting bamboo along a driveway is fun! Ignore that it’s impassable mess when covered in snow. Every winter storm we need to keep shaking the snow off to keep it from freezing to the ground. Maybe this is why the previous owner left 🤣 (they planted it).
I didn’t realize day one now had a web app and an android app. I’m going to have to check it out.
I had a good time attending a virtual Homebrew Website Club meeting this evening while I worked on my blog redesign. I was inspired by a codepen I came across for a journal with flipping pages done with CSS. The design only shows for desktop and its still a work in progress, but I’m having a blast.
Quite a few changes from my last update in 2023:
📧 Email Client (Web): Fastmail
📧 Email Client (Android): e/os default mail app (K-9 Mail fork)

📝✅ Notes + Todos: Index cards, Micro.blog private notes (both notes and todos), and Logseq (for work notes)
📔 Journal: …
I downloaded the hobonichi app to see if I liked it more than day one. It is cuter which may help me stick, but I like the encrypted option of day one and with day one I can use the android share sheet and get thoughts like these into Micro.blog. I’m going to give each a month and then decide.
I purchased a variety of green teas to try for the new year. As a way to take quiet moments and enjoy some health benefits. Today’s selection: premium dragon well long jing. It has a nice smell and its quite mellow.
