Recently:
- call with some favourite people
- cats back to their old, ridiculous selves
- venturing out of the house
- feeling less like the world is ending
- my local Morrisons very very slowly increasing their vegan offerings
- fun times with housemate
- more but I forgot it

Yesterday:
- napping
- chocolate fudge sauce
- zoom with some heroes
- K getting home
- not having to clean Finn’s oven
- reading the absolutely glorious responses to the great ‘Who Is V?’ mystery. Btw I did not intend to actually get people to guess- I was trying to say that you genuinely wouldn’t know who it was and not to bother, but I guess some people can’t resist a challenge…

^ I mean, offering a 'genuine prize' does tend to incentivise people

- I didn't seek reassurance from R. Told her I wanted to but didn't give her any specifics and didn't actively seek it. (Technically this was yesterday but given R is in Australia and didn't listen to my voice note until she woke up I'm counting it as today)
Great stuff! May I ask what book? That sounds like an idyllic place to read :)

Today and Yesterday

Chatting with my cousins - we've all grown up and csn now be ourselves around each other.
Being genuinely impressed with who my brother is growing into.
Making my grandmother laugh.

- focusing on the people who are rooting for me over those who don't

It's a beautiful place to read, love where I live. The book is called A Song for a new day. It's dystopian/post-apocolyptic (I know) but it's heavily about music. So far it just feels like a book about a touring band in a slightly futuristic world. That's a good thing though. I've also recently read two books by Matt Haig (the midnight library and how to stop time).

Doing yesterday's things here

- Stayed at my family gathering until late and really enjoyed seeing everyone
- Watched Stranger Things WITHOUT BEING ON MY PHONE THE WHOLE TIME GO ME



It goes to show, that no matter how bad things get for me, there is still always one thing which brings me happiness. I must cling to this for it is the making of me, the beginning of my resurgance and the fightback epitomised. I will defeat my demons.

An ode to joy
A road to love
A note to keep your head above
The rising tide's not yet a flood on this shore

Today:
- being a hero and not ticking the box to get online access to my medical notes because despite nosiness, I know that only ends in tears
- being politely reminded of the definition of brunch before too many people could laugh at me
- reading High Quality Theological Content written by Finn
- laughing with Lio

I do like post-apocalyptic books to be fair! I have recently read The Midnight Library. Whst did you think? How to Stop Time sounds like an interesting concept!

I strongly considered sending you a JPEG of my naked feet today. So at least we'd be the same level of inappropriate if at all??

Great minds think alike! I would say that I’ll try to remember to send one tomorrow but I’m wearing tights so it will be boring :(

Today:
- being helpful
- free food
- enjoying watching House
- roasting people

Mine isn’t all that feel good however it is positive because it amounts to self-care:

- finally got covid and feeling mega poop. However have been eating good food and drinking lots of water
- managed to sleep in the heat today
- phoned my dad this evening to cheer me up because I was anxious about isolating alone
- watched a lot of friends



Do not be dismayed by the brokenness of the world. All things can be mended. Not with time, as they say, but with intention. So go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally. The broken world awaits in darkness for the light that is you.

Well done for the self-care and I hope you’re feeling at least a little better by now!

Today:
- work colleagues helping out by lending me confetti-making devices
- enjoyed the last Greggs Run of the academic year
