Weekly review: Week ending May 7, 2021

| review, weekly
  • Plover and stenography:
    • I modified the Plover engine to add always-on stuff
    • I made it easier to repeat the same drill in Stenojig from Emacs.
    • I added websocket commands for adding translations and looking them up by stroke or by translation.
    • I started checking out evil mode, since I'll probably need a better way to launch keyboard shortcuts when I try to do steno more often.
  • Garden:
    • We bought some seeds, soil, and tomato cages.
    • We tidied up the right side of the garden, moving some of the tiger lilies into the bare spot and preparing to straighten the garden border. A- did a good job of entertaining herself by running up and down the garden and by sunning herself on the deck.
    • A- was excited about adding Shake and Feed fertilizer.
    • We spread some cedar mulch.
    • A- helped scatter grass seed.
    • A- helped W- spray nematodes in the garden.
