My body was screaming at me this morning to stay in bed and rest, but I had an important in-person meeting. Now my body is going:
Warning, warning. Hibernation mode imminent.
I feel freezing cold and can't warm up, and my legs feel twitchy, which means I'm 100% going to fall asleep this morning.

I'll never get bored of the "woman is a terrible cook but the man eats the whole meal anyway" trope. I started loving it when I watched the Fushigi Yuugi anime as a teen, and kdramas continue to feed my trope monster. 2 kdramas in a row in fact!

Reborn in Ash is getting a new cover!
The blurb error meant I needed to redo the cover files, and my painting isn't a good cover, so I've designed a new one. Some folks may have seen it when I was asking for feedback. I think I need to do a few tweaks, then I'll be sending it to my newsletter.

Quick Shot: SEIZURES
Not all seizures send your characters shaking uncontrollably. Sometimes, they unconsciously stare off while their body becomes rigid and they stop breathing.
After a seizure, it takes +-20 min to regain consciousness and answer questions again.

4000 steps for most people isn’t very much. For me, it’s too much. I did it today and my right side went all twitchy and tingly. I don’t know how I explain just how bad it is. My brain registers it as pain. My body forced me to sleep for two hours and both my legs still feel horribly twitchy.

I'm pissed off with one of my kids' schools for an attendence thing they're doing. This coming on the back of us fighting to get 8yo in (literally) and while he was late, he was still in by first lessons. Attendence rewards exclude children with disabilities or mental health issues. I've complained.
