May God bless you on your special day and on every day of your life.

Twenty fifth of December in the year of twenty hundred twenty four
[ Fourth day of Toas in the year of fifty four hundred thirty four ]

Seven yrold

This year I had to decide, whether I follow the Gregorian calendar or Afhme calendar. Because the Afhme calendar has its counterpart of the 29th of February almost two years later than the Gregorian calendar, so dates don't always correspond. Since I love the Afhme calendar more than the Gregorian calendar, I chose to prioritize it.In the year 2024 of the Gregorian calendar, the 4th day of Toas corresponds to the 25th of December. Naturally I spent the day with my darling's family. And overall, everything was blessed by God. It was a day without any major problems. With the minor exception of little disagreements in the car, everything went smoothly.As for Antidotum, I feel like I've never worked harder on it. Yet things barely moved forward, because I've been redoing them over and over again. I spent huge amount of my time re-reading older variables, and fixing errors, or improving sentence structure. I'd say I've made over millions of edits this year, but since almost all of them were minor, all of this work is barely seen.Originally I planned to request illustrations for the Pre-prod release, and then get an audiobook version for the Prod release, but financially speaking it turned out to be infeasible. It takes me about 1-2 months to have enough finances to hire an illustrator. Whereas, the audiobook narration is costless. Thus later on, I decided to flip the two. In other words, "Pre-prod" means audiobook-ready, whereas "Prod" means illustration-ready. Also I'm thinking of redoing the audiobook's variables, because last month, I acquired a proper microphone, which creates a bit better recording than a smartphone.Pre-prod release: 0,1,2,3,4

Six yrold

On the twenty sixth of December, just after midnight, the dogs started fidgeting and woke us up. As soon as the dogs were let outside, they started barking at something like crazy, but within seconds their barks turned into silence. Our greenhouse was burning.And so, I've spent the night helping to put out the fire, and then I've spent the following day cleaning out the ashes, and salvaging anything that survived. Even though the structure has burned down, and the pots have melted into plates, the plants have merely withered away. However, with the below freezing temperatures, there's not much we can save. Though there's a lesson to learn - always inspect the greenhouse before turning on the heater.As for Antidotum, I've had a very busy year, so there wasn't much time for me to write. Still I'm happy that I've managed to update as much as is presented below.Beta release: array one

Five yrold

On this day, my dear Antidotum turned five yrold. Sadly, I couldn't celebrate it, because I got caught in a storm while driving and I couldn't even reach my destination that day. Late at night I decided to stop by a hotel, because there was no way I could make it anywhere, when the storm was so bad that I couldn't see in front of my car, while driving on unfamiliar roads in another state. And the clouds covered the sky making the night too dark for words to describe it. Yes, it was definitely an adventure, but not the one I asked for.Anyway, two days later I decided that as a way to celebrate my growing Antidotum, from now on, I'll be summarizing the progress once a year each year, in the same manner as parents sometimes mark their children's height on their birthdays. Of course, a tale doesn't have a height, but it certainly does have its length, and that's what I'll keep a record of.So on the twenty sixth of December of the year twenty hundred twenty two, the progress of Antidotum was as follows.
