  1. My eyes haven’t got worse and my macular is still totally healthy despite my family history.
  2. New books! Had a chance to drop into a bookshop and pick up hard copies of some books I received to review but didn’t get round to. (I always like to purchase the book then, rather than read my review copy belatedly.)
  3. Samosas for dinner!

  • i’m grateful that i tried a fun new thing today.
  • i’m grateful for the friends in my life.
  • self-gratitude: i’m grateful that i had enough foresight not to have any beemergencies today. (if you read this and check and see up to 3 red goals, that’s because they don’t count. two of them are “0 safe days, 0 post derail respite” type goals, the other is an accidental weird beemergency that is not legit for many reasons.)

  1. Went for a walk and it was nice and peaceful and everything smells like cut grass.
  2. Rereading a book that feels all comforting and familiar, but which I don’t quite remember 100%. (It’s Cat Valente’s The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making.)
  3. Firmed up my birthday plans to go to the zoo on Sunday with Lisa and our FFXIV bestie.

  1. Praise from an old friend.
  2. SGQ: an hour of walking yesterday.
  3. My favourite cafe in town closed down several weeks ago, and I’ve mourned them ever since, and felt sorry for them. Today a co-worker told me “oh, no, they’ve just moved 6 shops up the street.” :woman_facepalming: :laughing:

  2. Semi-automating the rather grindy process of something in my game. I just have to click two buttons every so often.
  3. I have the disposable income to pick up this new game on a whim when it’s available tonight.
