Weekly update: I visted my aunty and mam to distribute Christmas gifts, received a lovely Pikmin gift from Shauni and Grant and enjoyed a fancy breakfast to celebrate Andrew passing his apprenticeship with a distinction grade. Next week we're on annual leave together, which I am looking forward to!

Weekly Update: Nothing too exciting happened in the week, but I did manage to post my Christmas parcels to Japan which is an errand done. Watched タンポポ on Friday, went to town on Saturday trying to find a record for my dad (with no avail) but picked up a 坂本 太郎 noodle stopper as a little treat 💛🍜

Discovered Todd Terje today after listening to some Lindstrøm. Really impressed with “It’s Album Time” (2014) after my first listen. I have a feeling this is going onto my rotation for the foreseeable. Lovely music to work to, and definitely dance to.

Weekly update: My mam was seriously ill and has been in hospital, she is recovering but still taking each day as it comes. Through the week we went to the Garth Marenghi show and I was lucky enough to go to London to see Metal Gear in Concert with my friends which lifted my spirits.

Weekly update: Been in hospital most of the week, I had my gallbladder removed as it caused another bout of pancreatitis on Sunday. Managed to see my relatives from Scotland as they were visiting, despite being fresh out of surgery. Played a little of Pokémon ZA but I’m pretty tired at the moment.

Weekly update: It’s felt like the longest week on the planet, felt very low, unsure if it’s period/SAD/work/ combination but I’m just trying to push through it. Celebrated my sisters 23rd birthday, saw the harvest moon and some lovely apples ripe for the picking. Shame I am too short 😂

Doing okay, recovered from pancreatitis but life has changed re: diet/medications/now alcohol-free. We’re navigating my partner being made redundant so I am picking up paid OT this week to get a bit extra behind us. Out walking a lot more these days which is nice. How are you doing my friend? 🙂
