forestofglory*Today is the Midautumn Festival and twitter is making me want mooncakes
*I'm still getting used to the new routine of N having pre-school five days a week. It's mostly been good. But mornings have been a bit stressful. There has been a certain amount of disagreement about getting dressed. I'm still not quite sure what day of the week it is some days. Last week I almost forgot to to go to the library on Tuesday! It doesn't help that the last two Mondays have been off -- first it was Labor day and then I was sick.
*On the subject of the library I have very little self control when putting books on hold. I keep saying to myself "I'll just check and see if the library has it, but I won't put a hold on it yet" and then putting a hold on it. I suppose that a pretty harmless problem. Also it library news there's now an official date for Link+ the statewide (and awesome) ILL system to to be back. It Oct 31! I've missed Link+ so much -- its been down since May.
*I've decided that brainstorming five workable ideas is not actually very actionable. I can't decide what ideas are workable or not. So I've just got a piece of paper and I'm writing stuff down on and I will pick at least one idea form there to try at the end of the month.
*Today is the last day this year for the California legislature to pass new laws. I've been trying to keep up with the flurry of new bills this week, but I haven't really manged. Still several good housing laws, including just cause eviction and a limit to rent increases have passed.
