Long time no write a diary, summarizing 2023 can also be considered a memory of the past. As people age, some things will be forgotten. While I still remember them now, I'll write them down here so I can remember them when I want to look back.

There is a community library next to my home, so I can borrow books in the future. This year, I read some books:
"Longevity," "Python PyTorch," and more. -
My daughter is in the ninth grade, and she will take the high school entrance exam in half a year. I hope to focus on helping her with the exam, doing more practice questions, motivating her, and aiming for a better high school.

Life is plain and simple. My wife's hometown bought a house and it has been delivered. We can go live there after retirement. My old house in my hometown was demolished. Every year when I go back, I visit with my brother. Last year, I even brought a drone and took some videos, but I haven't edited them yet.

The only digital product I bought is a DJI drone, Air 2S, which is a gift to myself. As I reach middle age, I don't indulge in many things. I also have three fish tanks: a Xiaomi fish tank, a round glass tank where I used to keep goldfish, and an acrylic tank bought from PDD. The acrylic tank is in the office, with 8 fish, 4 shrimp, several golden snails, and various aquatic plants, especially the money grass, which grows very fast.
Looking forward to this year, I will stick to doing the following:#
- Exercise regularly, play badminton twice a week and table tennis once.
- Study and read to gain knowledge.
- Aim for an investment return of around 8%, outperforming inflation.
- Travel abroad with the family once and go on several domestic road trips.
- Start some side businesses. I was always hindered by my own inertia last year and didn't persist. This year, I must persevere and make use of my domain names.
