Sleep 0500 to 1330 (8-1/2 hours)

• C3's camping trip cancelled because of Red Flag Warning through tonight. So CSr was around to play DDO with Dave S and me. We did a couple more Saltmarsh quests: Danger at Dunwater and Under the Cover of Darkness.
• I think they mostly fixed the garage gate yesterday which is fast since the work order finally went out Thursday night. It doesn't clunk when it's opening and closing. It does make a low sounding cunk-cunk-cunk when it finishes closing (when I moved in the gate was almost unnoticeable) but that's livable and hopefully not a sign that it will wear out faster.

Sleep 0600 to 0900, 0930 to 1400 (7-1/2 hours)

• 49ers lost at home to the Chiefs and are now 3-4. Bad but they should still make the playoffs and should still win the division as they're only a game back from the Seahawks with a home game vs them to go.

Sleep 0630 to 1230 (6 hours)

• Received the Reserve Study draft from Barrera and Company. We last used them in 2005 and naturally two decades later it looks much better than the 2005 version.

Sleep 0815 to 1430 (6-1/4 hours)

• I have a list, Purchases from Podcasts, to list products reviewed in Fear of a Black Dragon and in Between Two Cairns podcasts. I went through the list and removed some items that I'll never get because they're long out of print and the current reprint is expensive (e.g. Caverns of Thracia was reprinted as part of a $175 hardcover by Goodman Games with no PDF for sale) or there will be no PDF (some indie products are print+pdf and you can't buy just the PDF and I don't want to own a print version which I have to keep somewhere) or if the PDF has been discontinued.

Sleep 0500 to 1400 (9 hours)

• I went up to the roof last night to check if roof maintenance/repair was finished a month ago, which it was. Very dark and dangerous so that was a mistake. But also the west side gutters are already half-clogged with pine needles from the trees on that side of our building. We should have our handyman clear them.

Sleep 0245 to 0515, 1130 to 1545 (6-3/4 hours)

• AMEX HYSA interest rate has gone down twice in less than a month. Same with Apple Card Savings, which I notice now has a slightly higher interest rate (4.1% vs 4.0%). Since they're both tracking on Federal rates it means the Feds think inflation is slowing.
• Noticed that garage gate groaning is back. I guess they greased it Fri 18th and it's worn off already?

Sleep 2245 to 0300, 0900 to 1300 (8-1/4 hours)

• Realized that my site syncing hasn't been working since I moved my Mac mini back to my bedroom and hooked it up to Ethernet (at the start of this month). I had also changed the IP address so ChronoSync had not been able to connect to it.
