No blame, but still, never again I keep my calendar in the todo.txt format, in Obsidian, using the Todo.txt Mode plugin to move completed events to a done.md file each day. This week I opened that done.md file only to find it completely blank. Gasp! A plain text nightmare!! This was not supposed to even be able to happen. Not in my system! But pride comes before disaster, and arrogance before a fall. Yes, I checked the plugin settings. Nothing had changed between the time when it worked, and now. I’m not blaming the plugin — user error is a distinct possibility — though I’ll never trust it to cut and paste between files again. Being able to refer to past events helps me with future planning, eg. when MIL last went to the podiatrist, when DH’s hair was cut last. Fortunately I was able to restore the file because I’m pedantic about keeping backups. This would have been a lot more annoying if I hadn’t checked the done.md file when I did. Lesson: check your systems often. I have an alarm…
