It’s now been three weeks since my goals post. In the last fortnight, I have:
- Slept a touch over 7½ hours a night. Slightly better than my last check-in, but some of that was only because of an early night or two when I was sick.
- Made Things on 9 of 14 evenings:
- Various plots and plans for the D&D game, including a soundboard of theme music for most of the major factions and NPCs.
- Mended several shirts — but didn’t email the company I’d bought new shirts from. My mind works in strange ways sometimes…
- A performance of some poetry, mine and others, at a pub poetry night. I wasn’t super confident of this, but I did get several compliments afterwards, so it seems I’m doing something right.
- And did some boring life-admin things, including a start on a spreadsheet so boring I still can’t organise myself to finish it.
- Finally, I finished reading Margaret Atwood’s The Door, a collection of poetry. I picked this out of the library on a whim, read the poem “Heart”, and knew I had to read the rest. Quite a few I liked in there, including a couple I have in mind to read for people I know.
I can’t say how well prepared I am for the game session, as it got called off yesterday. But the extra sleep has been making a positive impact on my mental health, so that’s good.
