Gratitude journaling together

  1. I have received something of an inheritance from my grandparents, and I am deeply grateful for the way they saved up and thought about what their children and grandchildren will need.
  2. Friends who are comforting and helpful with something upsetting.
  3. Lisa, who bought me some cheap casual games to give me something to keep me busy.

  1. Got a new productivity game thing, this time Spirit City: Lo-fi Sessions. Much the same principle as Mini Cozy Room, but I’ve completed everything in that ‘game’, so it’s nice to have something to collect and ‘level up’ again. It’s not quite as convenient as Mini Cozy Room in some ways, but it’s still fun. And it’s adorable.
  2. Quiet weekend.
  3. Managed to fix my laptop from the issues I was having earlier in the week.

  1. Managed to sit down and inhale a book (Travis Baldree’s Brigands & Breadknives) over the weekend. It’s been a while since I just finished off a book in two sittings like that.
  2. Biscuit and Eclair weren’t eating properly over the weekend; today Eclair’s doing better, and we took Biscuit to the vet for a check-up and some medication. She seems a little perkier now? I’m grateful for knowing our bunnies well enough to spot subtle early signs, and take good care of them.
  3. New daily timetable working fairly well so far today…

  1. Done with a very challenging dance show. It was a lot of hard work, a lot of fun, and that made for an amazing show.
  2. Had an amazing Mother’s day.
  3. New Root expansion pack arrived. Husband and I broke it out right away and played the new factions, and we’re having friends over tonight to play.

  1. Biscuit ate a little bit on her own this morning.
  2. I am endlessly tickled by this plot summary of Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation/Mo Dao Zu Shi. “Jin Ling’s uncle dies to bring back Jin Ling’s uncle, who was killed by Jin Ling’s uncle (except not really). And he teams up with Jin Ling’s future uncle-in-law to solve the mystery of a mutilated body that turns out to be Jin Ling’s uncle, who was killed by Jin Ling’s uncle…” (So far none of those uncles in the summary were the same uncle. In order: Mo Xuanyu, Wei Wuxian, Jiang Cheng, Lan Wangji, Nie Mingjue, Jin Guanyao… It gets to eight uncles in total by adding in Lan Xichen and Nie Huaisang. It is completely accurate, albeit requires that you count an unofficial adoption or a martial uncle as an uncle, and the brothers of a sworn brother of an uncle as uncles.) Some days, the smallest silliest thing is such a lift…
  3. Today is also going very smoothly.

  1. Lisa went to pick up a book for me since I still can’t cycle. I am so ready for my wrist to be back to normal.
  2. I got myself the most recent Devcats game, A Planet Full of Cats. Very satisfying so far, but I’m glad I waited for the “2.0” version because I would definitely have struggled without the enhancements added to help with quest tracking etc.
  3. Biscuit ate most of her pellets of her own accord this morning.
