  1. SGQ: Me-last-week finally remembered to write down that I needed a nailtrim goal—for weeks I’d only notice my long nails while driving, when I couldn’t do anything about it—but I finally have a goal now, and my nails are finally reliably going to be a reasonable length!
  2. Good morning coffee and a view of my pool while my dogs bounces around in the yard behind it.
  3. The confidence beeminder gives me that I’ll be able to keep up with all the house maintenance left to do.

  • i’m grateful for a fun board game day with friends! we played cascadia twice (i won both times! :o), and activity, and a little bit of smart 10 … all in all a grand time, very good times!
  • self-gratitude: i’m grateful for walking both to and home from my friends’ place where we met today.
  • i’m grateful that it’s still the beginning of spring. my flatmate always jokes that i’m a tropical fish because i thrive only in a very narrow temperature frame. (i get Too Hot or Too Cold relatively quickly.) the night was chilly, and the days are starting to get warmer, but it’s still all very bearable for me, for the most part. XD
