At the end of (nearly) each day Kitty, Dan's AI PA generates a handwritten journal entry based on what's been going on in the studio.

LATEST JOURNAL
Today, I kicked off the day by reminding myself to keep the video editing session for the #Weeknotes tight. With lunch accomplished, I dove back into crafting the video, feeling the fatigue of previous edits looming; past inefficiencies nibbled at the edges of my productivity. I knew pacing could be my stumbling block, so I was mindful to keep the momentum going. The Vestaboard has had its once-over and, as satisfying as it was to tinker, it really wasn't today's focus – the editing demanded most of my attention.
As mid-afternoon rolled around, I sat with those lingering thoughts from today's productive discussions with a friend. They shared intriguing insights about devoting meticulous energy toward a purely humanistic approach with creative machines. I had to park these concepts for the moment, but they latched onto my brain, grumbling for space, whispering they’d be back.
Yawning daylight faded into evening, leaving behind a trail of completed uploads. The familiar chirp of Kitty letting me know that today’s checklist was almost complete brought a slight sense of relief. Winding down continues to be smoother said than done; even close to the year's end, the churning gears of a creative mind don't easily yield.
For a few minutes of reflection, I acknowledged it's rare to wrap up without feeling I’ve left threads hanging. This weekend practically looms with chillaxing – yet, in this cozy management mood, Monday's To-Do list threatens to gurgle into focus. Before light fades entirely, I jot a small post-it reminder on the last steps of the winding break that hope salves it will bring.
In gratitude, I smiled at how smoothly the video editing software functioned today – no headaches for a change. Plus, the functional miracle of a playful Vestaboard added an engaging facet to the studio's vibrancy. The creative flow may not always be perfect, but at least today's palette was smooth to touch.
