โ€œThe colorful Tetris of obligationsโ€ to describe your calendar. As genius a description as the idea to invite your goals to the dinner table, which I am also stealing. It *does* work if you work it. โ˜ฎ๏ธ

I absolutely LOVE the idea of lining things up on the dining table to tempt myself into them and will PINCH that idea. Once I've finished the goddamn jigsaw that is taking up the whole fecking table! Putting addresses on postcards as a prompt to actually write them and send them is GENIUS. Another idea I will steal from you! Jx

YES!

Today I stood and did some of a find-a-word instead of scrolling. I also read two of the booklets from festivals I attended and wanted to learn more about. Over the weekend, I wrote half of the postcards. It really works!

But in the meantime, enjoy that puzzle! You have GOT THIS!

The last (almost) year has been a stripping of many things because I had some HUGE responsibilities as a primary caregiver + my dog had 6 puppies ๐Ÿ˜ณ that didnโ€™t immediately get adopted.

This yearโ€™s theme is play. Iโ€™m trying to bring back some things I had to let go of. It isnโ€™t constant but in the past I think it has been.

Love the idea of literally lining up your intentions! Laying them out on the table is brilliant! ๐Ÿ˜

And thank you for the Sedaris recommendation! Going to listen today! Xx

I learned the hard way, repeatedly, that this is an oxymoron. That sounds rubbish.

โ€œYou are still you, but a fuller, happier youโ€.

I like this one. I'm almost a decade in to my genderfuck journey so I don't get it much anymore, but I used to hear that a lot from people I knew before or close to the start of my trans journey.

I get it as well from people who knew me before Cuddles and I got together.

I'm bipolar so everything has to be fed around episodes of depression, hypomania, and combo. In hypomania I get a million ideas and thoughts and things I want to do and reining that in is haaaaaaard! ๐Ÿ˜ญ Clear timelines and deadlines help. Those I can plan towards.

Same, same, same here! You're doing great, keep up the good work for yourself. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’•

Also, you've reminded me that I have a button I need to sew onto a pair of shorts.๐Ÿ˜† That's the extent of my hand sewing.
