  • self-gratitude: i’m grateful i had enough time this morning to wash my hair. (alternative phrasing: i’m grateful i didn’t wait until the last possible second to go wash my hair, so i wasn’t hyper stressed about it.)
  • i’m grateful for a delicious dinner.
  • i’m grateful i finally spoke to my flatmate about [x], which turned into a good, valuable, reassuring (if simultaneously also a bit disillusioning) conversation. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

  1. There’s a kerbside collection in my neighbourhood where we can put large rubbish on the footpath (neatly) and the council will collect it. I like to put out things that can be reused because regular people come past before the council does.
  2. A largish box of electronics has already been stripped down to just the plastic remnants, mostly by an industrious young teenager with a screwdriver.
  3. SGQ: I did exercises while watching TV. My balance is good enough that I can do biceps curls on one leg.

  1. Getting some new music recommendations via Spotify’s daylist thing. Side effect: I need to up my entertainment budget to buy some of these albums now. (I like to own the music I enjoy, since Spotify isn’t great for artists in general.) Some of my new favourites, on YouTube: Skye - Clock to Stop, The Wailin’ Jennys - Starlight, Sleepthief feat. Jody Quine - Eurydice, Ashley Campbell - Highwayman, Mary Fahl - Exiles.
  2. I’ve gone through all the course material for each of the classes I’m taking this year.
  3. Going through YouTube to get the above links I was reminded of Whitney Avalon’s work and enjoyed her Little Mermaid/Adele mashup: Rolling in the Deep.

  1. Danish cashew biscuits.
  2. Several bits of old metal that I put out for the kerbside collection (which starts tomorrow) have already been taken, so they’re going to be reused by someone.
  3. SGQ: I went to a Greens party meeting about door-knocking and I’ve realised I can do it, so I’ve signed up for it. I’ll be partnered with an experienced person until I’m ready to go by myself so I don’t need to feel worried about not knowing what to say.
