Several people in my circles have been attemtping weekly-ish posts summarizing things they’ve been doing, thinking, reading, watching, etc over the previous week. I really like that idea, so I’m going to give it a try.

Doing

Last Friday night, Tess and I took EJ to a Bay FC game with some friends. It was her first sports event, and a good game to boot!

I’ve been playing a lot of Minesweeper the last few months as an idle activity. Mostly, I use the lofi & games version because it’s simple and easily accessible.

Inspired by the hype around SwiftUI, plus my fascination with Minesweeper, I’ve been working on a SwiftUI implementation of the game for myself.

This is my second week going to the gym on a regular cadence to do some exercise.

I’m learning some exercises I can use to build my own routines though, and they’re definitely good workouts.
