 State of me

Slept better last night, thanks to it cooling down yesterday.  Still, it's cooler, but it's horribly humid, which is almost as bad as the heat.  We really can't win in summer here.  Still, the house is open and we're actually getting fresh air, which is better than 40+C heat.

Still dealing with arthritis in my right wrist.  Need to hunt up a decent wrist brace.  I've been using the one that I bought when I had tendonitis in my thumb, and it's good, but doesn't quite give the wrist compression I need to deal with the wrist pain.

Managed a fairly productive day yesterday.  Spent some time organising myself (printing out goals, putting up calendars and the like), did some slush reading, some AA reading (and damn if there isn't some good stuff out there this year) and some outlining.  Outlining is a very slow, sometimes frustrating, process for me.  But I'm already discovering story pieces, which is good.

State of the Liam

One nightmare last night.

The trouble with him being in his big boy bed and room is that he's further away from us, and if we're watching TV, we can't always hear him.  We were watching a movie last night that was loud enough so we couldn't hear him crying when he woke up from a nightmare.  Little guy pulled it together to come out and ask for cuddles, though, which was awesome, and then slept through the night afterwards.

He didn't want Daddy to go to work today, either.  In his words: "I don't want to miss you, Daddy."

Plans for the day

Back in routine today, huzzah.  I am such a creature of habit and routine, I swear.

This is the week where Mum comes to watch Liam later, so I might not get as much work done today.  That's okay, though, so long as I get some done.  I have some minor housework to take care of, and then I can do some AA reading, at least.  Starting out the year feeling on top of things is a good feeling.  Now I just need to accomplish everything I want to!

Writing nook cleaned and ready for the new year

I spent some time over the past few weeks tidying up the writing nook.  Which meant taking a whole lot of stuff down from my inspiration board, (mostly) clearing off the desk and putting up a new calendar and list of my goals for the year.  Also cracking open a shiny new Paperblanks diary for the year.

I still have some serious decluttering to do – the filing cabinet is a mess, and the basket things in the side of the desk are crammed full of everything that I’ve randomly chucked in.  There is also a very large pile of books leaning against the side of the desk that I need to lob at other people/get rid of in some fashion soon.  Despite that, it all feels good.  Ready for a year of getting work done in the word mines.
