My biggest takeaway of the year is "Don't wait, do it now" Whatever you want to do, whatever new year plans or resolutions for 2026, don't wait. Start it now. Call that person. Apply to that thing. Go to that place. Run that run. Play that game. Do it now. Don't wait.

I took today off so I could complete my two-day baking extravaganza (I lost Sat to cluster headaches). All of these have gone to neighbours & local friends.
Not pictured: two batches of dark chocolate & raspberry brownies - one for work Christmas lunch, one for family Christmas (they freeze well)

Lately I've been establishing a highwater in the most Canadian of benchmarks: Apologies per Second. Via email, I can attain as high as 35 APS. In person, I can do 15 APS - still respectable, but nowhere near where I want to be.

Having just come back from woods after another deep read of Screenwriting is Rewriting, I found watching Stranger Things even more interesting. You can see them deliberately put everything on the mantle for finale, which some may find too obvious, but we forget how many shows fall down on the basics
