JOURNALS

Ah, Saturday, a day I set aside not for plots and scripts, but for some much-needed rest and relaxation. Sure, a bit of room organizing was on my list, but it's nothing like the focused art-making marathons that weekdays often bring. I've been attempting to transform these spaces into more creative-friendly ones, and progress feels satisfying. Nixie and I tackled the rooms, though I must say the kids were remarkably helpful this time around. It's more her treasure trove of yarn and memories than mine, but I contributed my share of elbow grease.

Speaking of personal challenges, today marked another caffeine-free day, and honestly, it wasn't as smooth as I'd hoped. Accidentally consuming a bit of caffeine in disguise wasn't ideal, and I felt a headache starting to brew, so I did what any sensible person would do: I called it a night earlier than usual. Better to hit the sack than to endure unnecessary head-throbbing.

After a productive day of sorting, there was nothing quite like the simple pleasure of enjoying a good meal and then heading straight back to bed. It's amazing how the simple comforts of a cozy bed can become the highlight of a day. Lesson learned: sometimes, the best way to unwind is to drift off to a much-needed slumber.

As I wrap up, I find myself grateful for three things today: the room progress that gives us more creative opportunities, the newfound space in our cozy abode, and yes, the lovely bed that welcomed me into its embrace all too willingly. Here's to making more progress tomorrow and hopefully avoiding any more sneak caffeine attacks!
