Just want to throw some belated kudos @manton’s way for the Bookshelves feature in Micro.blog. Such an elegantly simple way to manage one’s book reading and make quick little posts about it. Been doing this for 10 years on my own but this makes it so much easier/better.
I could not resist showing @pratik my handwritten and hand drawn travel log that is almost identical to his composition wise.
2022 for my wife
- January: Loses major client.
- February: Falls 15 min into a XC ski class; breaks wrist.
- March: Surgery for Wrist
- April: Covid
- May: Falls getting out of bathtub, breaks nose.
My wife’s terrible no good very bad 2022 continues: Currently at the ER because she was tripped up by one of the cats and fell in the bathroom getting out of the shower and broke her nose.
I want my notes to be future-proof and platform-agnostic
(What we believe in.)
I’m currently reading: Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear 📚
So far, I feel like everything I need to get from it could be gained by simply reading the most popular highlighted passages. There needs to be an app for that.
I am daydreaming about a nap.
Feeling pretty positive about still being negative.
Well, after 25 months of our household avoiding it, my wife Bethany tested positive this morning. Beatrix and I are negative so far. Bethany is isolated. Beatrix and I will be out of the house until late tonight. Also, getting second booster today.
Finished reading: Indie Microblogging by @manton 📚. At times reads like a manifesto. At others, a how to. I. Found it worth the time.
