First of all, thanks to everyone who posts in this thread. I probably would have just silently put this hobby off to the side if it weren't for you! This month in particular I felt like higher priority stuff happened.

The anki stats this month are decent, but not great. But I do feel that a lot of other great stuff happened with Japanese:
*I read a lot. Including a few 25-30 page "books" from the Japanese Graded Reader series level 3. Before this month, I hadn't read anything of that length or difficulty before.
*I watched a few more episode of shirokuma kafe, without subtitles. That's a great workout for my listening skills. Again, the length is unlike anything I've ever done before.
*I started taking JOI lessons again.
