Please someone give me a real solid kick because I really need to get this one thing done but for some reason my brain is in complete nope mode. 🙁

off the windows in the mornings is worth so much. And of course it's better for the car, too.

Finally managed to clear enough space in my garage to be able to park my car inside again. =) Admittedly about half the stuff has only been temporarlily moved into the inner part of the space, but I can fix that later. We're starting to get cold nights, and not having to scrape ice

That feeling when someone in your life complains about a problem you only wish you were having...

I don't judge them for it at all, because every person's situation is different and everyone has their own struggles, and every right to express their frustrations. It just hit me the wrong way today.

Dnd with my Sunday group today was about 10% progress and 90% shenanigans. And two perfectly timed nat 1s when our sorcerer was trying to be sneaky. XD

I've been spending the evening playing around in HeroForge, designing my new D&D character. Please say hi to Rissiri, the charismatic Naga Barbarian. =)

The travel poster looked like so many others. A lush forest behind a serene beach. The text said "Be something exotic!"

"Sorry, there's a typo on your poster. I think you mean 'somewhere'?"

"No. We can make you to be, say, a bear, tiger, or hippo, for up to a week."

"A hippo? Tell me more!"

(This is admittedly a questionable strategy as I still can't really look at pictures of him without tearing up, but I hope this will help me to actually process those emotions, rather than just burying them.)

I've just treated myself to a canvas print and a mousepad with these two photos of Iron. I've been a bit irresponsible with money lately but the print shop had a sale and I wanted something to keep him present.

Today has so far been a day of curling up under the duvet, hugging a pillow. Nothing particular has happened to warrant this, just tiredness and *waves at the world in general *.

Newly painted nails. Nothing fancy, but I like it. =)

Spent all day today at my parents' place, setting up a new wifi system and mum's new laptop, cleaning a couple of windows and carrying things down to my dad's new studio room. It was a really satisfying day. 🥰

Found this cute and very soft little dragon plushie today and she was only £1.50 so I couldn't resist. She looked completely clean but I still washed her just to be sure, and now she's drip drying over my bathroom sink. 😊

of being able to scan and copy A3 sized stuff. Would I use it often? Absolutely not. Is there a chance the printer won't even work due to dried inks? Yes. But it would be so much fun to try...

(Yes, I know I'm weird. 😅)

SunnySidesofBlue @sunnysidesofblue.bsky.social · 13d

The could-I-get-this-thing-to-work tech nerd in me is so, so tempted to buy an A3 format multi function printer I spotted at the thrift store today for about £30. I already have an A3 printer that I use for printing large TTRPG maps so I do not exactly *need* this other one, but I do like the idea

Client: I have a meeting with the bank in one hour. Could you send me a draft of X financial statement document? I still don't have document Y, though.

Me, knowing that I've told him multiple times that I can't finish statement X until he provides me with document Y: ...

My car passed the re-check for the annual safety inspection and is now legal to drive for another year. 😊

I miss Iron so much right now. 💔
