I’m going to restock all the shirts that have run out this week, folks have been asking! I’m back in the studio from tomorrow, it’s the slow period, and I just found out I most likely have a disc bulge which is going to make work and life really hard. Sales appreciated x

Got sent home from work early and to take the day off tomorrow because my foot pain had me wincing and limping which had customers asking if I was okay.
I should probably think of what to tell the podiatrist tomorrow that isn't just "my foot is fucked up"

Messaged my best friend before with this
"It seems fitting that I end 2025 feeling exhausted, in pain and with minor annoyance hahaha"

Booked an appointment to get my foot checked out next week because the pain is gone from annoyance to this is making me miserable and grumpy and given I have to be around people all the time at work me being all grouchy and complaining isn't good.

Back at work today after three days off and when I got home I ended up napping for two & a half hours.
I should probably book some proper time off sooner rather than later.

For the second Christmas in a row I got my partner a @pepperraccoon.com tshirt (I also got him a couple of Pepper's stickers)
He loved it and I loved supporting an artist pal (I also got myself another Pepper tee when I made the order back in November)

Three more days of work before Christmas so deciding which three Christmas themed tshirts to wear (because if given the choice between wearing a festive tshirt and wearing my work polo/button up I am of course going to wear a festive tshirt)

Yesterday my friend group did our annual Secret Santa.
My Santa got my dream Pokémon card and framed it. Such a thoughtful and creative gift.
I'm not sure if I'll hang it on the wall or sit it on my dresser or bookshelf (once I've tidied the shelves)

Did a video call and clean with a friend yesterday (they did dishes, put away art supplies and folded zines. I put away clothes, made the bed and complained about my ongoing foot pain)

I was going to catch up on tidying this evening but after I opened my #SecretSantaAoNZ gifts I ended up having an unplanned nap.
I did do laundry and put away clean clothes.
