- The new house’s quirks haven’t defeated my dad: he’s fashioned a plinth for one of my bookcases to test whether that will be enough to allow it to go flat back against the wall.
- The law will potentially provide remedy in a particular situation that I am not going to write about more here/now.
- One of my FFXIV friends won’t be away too long, which is nice – we thought she’d be out much longer.

- Watching my mom being able to relax on her way home, after a supposed to be 30 minute procedure that turned into sleeping at the hospital. She felt anxious to go home alone, I am grateful that my company allowed her to rest worry free.
- Feeling mentally and physically capable of providing that kind of help. I have some health issues, which frequently make me too tired or too foggy to be useful.
- A nice day without any plans, just me and my ebooks. All I need after 8 hours of traveling yesterday.

- After passing a stressful deadline… I seem to now kind of be in a weird state where I’m not stressed anymore, but still incredibly motivated to accomplish things. I’m not sure how long this will last, but it’s nice.
- Slowly, without really noticing… a person at work I used to find talking to very awkward is basically a good friend now.
- I realized that some weird inconsistency with my espresso lately was almost certainly because i wasn’t letting the machine heat up long enough to maintain temperature stability.

- I bought Sims Enchanted by nature, and it’s amazing
- I was tidying up my garage, and sold a bike that hasn’t been used for more than a year. The buyer was so happy when he tried the bike, that in return, it made me feel even better.
- I bought a new cooling bag and it’s so handy. The old one had broken zips and had to be held, the new one is bigger, not broken and is a backpack.

- Settling in at the new house finally.
- Dad brought all my books over from the storage unit yesterday. Organising them is fun, but tiring!
- My new sit/stand desk is pretty neat, especially since it’s on casters and I can move it around in whatever way suits me in the moment.

- UK politics: Seeing the pushback by cis people against the UK “gender critical” crew and the legislative changes they want in order to push trans and non-binary people into the closet/get rid of us entirely. Will it be enough? Who knows, but at least not everyone is enabling them.
- Signing up for the local library was really easy.
