Doing well today! Spent time with a friend yesterday that we haven't seen since 2020 started. It was really nice to see them again, especially given they'll be going off to college soon and won't be here until summer and winter breaks. Hopefully we can keep in touch.

Not a lot of tech news, been low on energy by the time we're free to work on the notes program. It's getting there though! Menus are just about done. Just need to add functionality and figure out how to open an existing editor with Python. Ideally we'll prompt the user for their preferred editor on first run, then let them change it in the settings as desired. Extra-ideally, we'll do the same for each pseudo-user so each can have their own preferred editor- should be able to store that somehow and it would be a nice quality of life option so that different preferences are respected. We also still need to figure out password encryption.

In terms of fun things, we've gotten back into playing Starbound. Currently working on a large complex that we'll rent out; it has a tree farm incorporated in it, and it's practically built itself with that. Will be making tree farms from now on. The only limiting factor now is plant fiber, so we need to get a reliable source of that going.
