1. My library account spontaneously works again. 2. Each year I do an event for my birthday that originated on Habitica ([more here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qQt76E_zZvoYYNy1eyhkS9lMQ2FwjttQrnGqH5zKQxw/edit)) and people’s responses have been very nice. 3. It’s quite rainy today, and I do love the sound of the rain. ---

Lovely walk to the school (well, most of the way on my part, but I got to sit in a pretty wooded area while I waited for them) with my husband and son! ---

1. I’m fairly solidly into the next 100-range in my chess ranking (although I still vary a lot on puzzles, which isn’t so great) 2. We’ve made An Important Decision, I think, about what we want to be doing over the next couple of years! 3. Managed to re-jig my finances in a satisfying way for the moment ---

1. Had a great weekend at Holiday World with my friends. 2. The waiting list for speech therapy moved faster than expected and my son has appointments on the books. 3. The new side table I bought to put beside my desk is the perfect size to hold my sometimes used stuff without crowding the room. ---

1. Found the local bookshop. 2. Sorted out a potentially annoying problem with surprising speed. 3. Dad’s coming over tomorrow to do the fix/tweak for stuff on my bike. ---

1. The improvements/tweaks Dad made to my bike really do help! Now the magnet to hold it together when folded properly engages and doesn’t slip so easily, for instance. 2. Was able to use my store credit from [Bookloop](https://bookshop.zeercle.com/) to pre-order a book I’m interested in (_The Bookshop, The Draper, The Candlestick Maker: A History of the High Street_ by Annie Gray). 3. An evening off raiding. ---

1. Lisa’s getting me a treat when shopping today. 2. Finally started watching the _Heaven Official’s Blessing_ donghua with Lisa. The subtitles are hilariously bad (Ling Wen keeps being referred to as “Wingman”, Mount Yujun as “Mount Eugene”, and I can’t remember the others but it’s just… bad), but that’s fine. We’re watching the dub anyway. 3. Finding a [helpful video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdPf_OICBO4) for pronouncing all the names in _Heaven Official’s Blessing_. Some I’ve been getting right (Hua Cheng, for instance), but others are a bit more tricky. ---

1. Managed to find a place within easy reach to get soft goat’s cheese. 2. PJ day. 3. Got unstuck with reading _Heaven Official’s Blessing_ and started the penultimate volume. Volume 6 was just really sad! ---

1. caught up on a backlog with reconciling my budget 2. recovered (a tiny bit) from an epically bad session of chess yesterday 3. X should be coming of hospital this week ---

1. Library had some holds ready for me. 2. A sunny evening. 3. A friend from the last tier has been joining us in raiding for a few evenings, which was a lot of fun. ---

Just thought of a small silver lining from chemo: my shower drain hasn’t slowed down in like a year 😂 ---

1. Library has more holds waiting for me. 😂 2. Recklessly saying “sometimes my Beeminder goal isn’t the most important” and planning to derail in order to start reading a bunch of books at once, just for fun. Sometimes I get too stuck in my head to do this kind of thing, but friends encouraged me to, and… yep, I’m really enjoying my impulsive reading. (Primarily _Sorcery & Cecilia_, by Patricia C. Wrede and Caroline Stevermer, right now.) 3. Having the disposable income to just… try new games, if I want to.
