My Journal was for a while built on top of org-journal, but I am finding it hard to work with these days, and I think returning to a 'vanilla' org-mode capture setup like my Practice Captures:

id:20220929T004858.146385

(with-eval-after-load 'org-capture
  (add-to-list 'org-capture-templates
               (cce-def-dynamic-org-capture
                "jj" "Journal Entry"
                :name "journal" 
                :capture-path-tmpl "~/org/journal/daily/daily_%GW%V.org"
                :template-path "~/org/cce/captures/journal-capture.org"))

  (defun cce/open-journal (&optional goto)
    (interactive "P")
    (if goto
        (org-capture-goto-last-stored)
      (org-capture goto "jj")))
  (evil-leader/set-key "j" #'cce/open-journal))

(provide 'cce/journal)

* %U %?

Setting this up was a bit of a pain. org-capture-templates can do a lot of dynamic templating, but it's not quite enough – I want to have the date encoded in the file name, I specifically want each week to be stored in its own file. So I have this function cce/update-journal-capture which removes the old capture template, and generates a new one, re-running at 03:00 each morning. I'll have to turn this in to a miniature library for my other Practice Captures. I think having them stored inside the daily files for the most part is a smart thing, except for things which I need to review over longer periods of time.

DONE org-protocol to capture things from browser in to journal

things not important enough to go in the archive on their own pages but still deserve an ID and a spot to be remembered.

DONE update journal defdaily templates so that they use FILETAGS and whatnot properly.

NEXT move (cce-def-dynamic-org-capture) to its own module and move WEALs in e.g. Mood Log to that new file.
