"Right, gonna start off the first week of the year on the right foot. Get some good sleep, wake up fresh and early. Have a full plate of Things To Do."

150% complete! 90 books read in 2024

Very pleased with this target. Kindle doesn't do details like pages read, so I might use a different counting software next year because everyone else's looks so interesting. Most of mine were indie books. I also read around 5-10 paper books.

On Christmas day, Duolingo gave me these two sentences to translate to/from Scottish Gaelic.

"I am stealing a stone."
"I am keeping a stone."

Seems a bit on the nose, Duo 👀

Sometimes I come across words that have been misused or mistaken for others. I have made a little collection of them. Here's one of my favourites.

After 10+ years of editing for friends & word of mouth, I got my first paid editing gig over the weekend.

And she LOVED me!

Ya know those moments where you get so annoyed at random tech quirks on your computer that you rage quit a screen and go for a walk, only to find yourself in a forest during the golden hour? #afk #nature #autumn
