How are y'all doing? What have you gotten done (self-care counts!)? Seen anything cool lately?

I actually got a lot done the last few days!

- trimmed the rosemary bush and dried at least a third of it before getting sick of the smell (filled a big ziploc)

- finished going through the boxes in my office so now I can organize

- ran a good session of Monster of the Week, which I had adapted and heavily changed from a cheap DnD adventure

- did general 'take care of stuff' stuff

- brushed the cats a couple of times and could make a kitten out of what I got

Tell me about trimming the rosemary! If you don't mind. I bought a plant from a grocery store a couple of years ago, stuck it in the ground, and... well, now it's bigger. And sort of in the way of the blackberry bush.

I know there's a proper way to do it, but I just was whacking at it. I know you can't take off more than a third of it at a time. If you do it right, it'll branch and get fuller, but I can never remember how and always forget to look it up (I just google 'how to trim rosemary')

Yay for all the things! \o/
And omgg, so much extra cat fur :D

I'm procrastinating on some illustrations I need to finish by the end of the day tomorrow, but I know what they're going to look like and I can hopefully get them done in time.

I'm sewing quite a lot of masks, and having fun picking out fabrics specific people I know would like.

And I'm watching The Wire, from back when Michael B. Jordan was an actual child and still a really good actor!

Stop procrastinating! It always takes longer than you think (they say as a master procrastinator...)

I've been getting a bit of sewing done on & off, working on Tyrava (the window now has a shutter! the door is mostly painted!), & today I'm doing a bit of cooking & baking & working on a set of shelves for backstock soap.

This sounds like a lot, but I'm also in bed at least twelve hours a day & frequently eating a large bowl of popcorn for lunch, so don't be _too_ impressed.

It's important to rest!

[seerofrage]

Yay for working on all the things! No shame in getting some well-deserved rest either (I've been taking lots of naps too, haha; )

[seerofrage]

Been slowly tackling my lil to-do list, was hoping it'd go faster but progress is progress and I will take it! Though I really need to get back to that art thing I started earlier in the week and lost steam on, maybe tonight?

[silvercat17]

Keep at it! You can do it!

[seerofrage]

Thank you!!

3 Day Weekend. Perfect time to crush it. Resolved my Menu on the CMS in a much simpler way than I had expected. Sometimes the simplest solutions are right under your nose.

Updated my share buttons to include tumblr but couldn't figure out how to make the icon show. Happy with what I did so far.

Set up a Microsoft Access videos to act as a video database. It actually plays videos. Ironically the videos I used for this database are video tutorials about using Access.

Completed a VBA Project I had been procrastinating on for some time.

Go you! You're getting all the things done!

i wrote a lot yesterday (about 2,3k), and that's all i've been doing. no time to read the news. the weather is cold and my country (and the world) is on fire, but i'm managing, somehow.

[silvercat17]

Good job! We're all managing the best we can.
