Stuff I Did

Got a bit of sunburn enjoying a summer-like sun
Playing around with terminal UIs (TUI) like Toot and arttime
Used the Vac Attack! on last fall's leaves. Works really well if they're dry; jams on sticks
Watched A Minecraft Movie - a far better movie than it should be! Actually went with the kids twice and it's better the second time around because you expect the ridiculousness of the whole thing
Published first poem picture on the blog!
Upgraded Synology mirrored backup drive volume - tripled from 4TB to 12TB which may last a while. I have a feeling COVID-like supply chain problems are going to appear again 🫤
Bought a Colorverse Shuttle dip pen and nib in solid brass. Lovely to hold! I'm often testing different inks and this should make it easier to swab and clean rather than using one of my fountain pens.
Hauling a bed around all day to install at the cottage. Lots of driving. Some lovely beach nap time. Life ain't bad.

Spring weather finally arrived! A little robin chirped at me in the garden and made me laugh
My kids are safe, loved, and curious
