When I visited Marikina I was delighted by the words "sidewalks are for people" on sidewalks around the city.

This morning I took Celestine to the library.
She started with building Lego homes, but soon it was time for a reading by former lieutenant-governor of Nova Scotia Mayann Francis. She read her book One Summer in Whitney Pier.

After the reading we went to the Science Café where Celestine made a bathymetry map.

I wasn't in the office the past couple days, so I was happy to resume my play through of Paper Apps Galaxy today. Sector 33 went smoothly with some fortunate rolls.

After a sick day yesterday, I'm back to exploring with Paper Apps Galaxy. The part retrieval sectors like this one (25) seem to be easier as I can focus on avoiding enemies rather than shooting them.

Celestine was sick the past three days, so we played some board games.
Carcassonne and Catan were easy choices because they're light on reading requirements, but I was surprised how much she enjoyed playing a simplified version of Noisy Person Cards.
She likes playing Monopoly, but I was able to distract her from that after the first game of it.
I kept looking longingly at the ElfQuest Adventure Game. It's way too complicated to play with her, but someday I might sit down to play it solo.

In November I ordered the medals for Zombies, Run! Virtual races I ran in 2023 and 2024.
The package had a long, weird delay. It was handed to DHL on December 5th and then sat for a long time before being handed over to USPS. Finally, it was sent from Chicago to Montreal on February 5th. Two days with Canada Post got the package to me here in Halifax.
I'm happy to finally be able to add these to my other medals.

I cleared sector 26 in Paper Apps Galaxy this morning. I'm still enjoying doing one sector/page each day I work.

I looped back to sector 2 in Paper Apps Galaxy. I was able to get the final space monster defeated with my last roll.
