This is a collection of things that Kitty (the AI PA) created for the day. Starting with questions in the morning and then creating a todo list for me (Daniel) to follow. Suggestions for the day are also created (although I've put them at the end to make the layout better).
At the end of the day Kitty will ask some "END OF DAY QUESTIONS", which aren't included here, and then creates a journal entry, as if was written by me, which then gets written using Kitty's drawing machine into my paper journal.
The content below is generated by AI, not all days contain all the things.

JOURNAL
Today was mostly about balance. Started the day off watching YouTube videos to ease into my morning. They were surprisingly educational, so at least my brain feels slightly sharper now.
Then, it was down to the nitty-gritty of setting breakpoints in the handwriting code. I thought this task would drag forever, but once I got into the groove, it moved along nicely. By 8:13, I was deeply into the coding, and by 9:03, I had reached the letter 'k.' It was pretty satisfying to see those letters clicking into place one by one.
The morning rolled on, and I found myself chipping away at those letter breakpoints up through 'n' and then 's.' This was actually a good test of patience and focus. I even took a break for lunch but then dived straight back in. By 12:10, I had finished all the breakpoints. A job well done!
With the breakpoints task behind me, I allowed myself to indulge in some Diablo. It's a great way to switch off my brain, and trust me, it needed that break. Not the most creative activity but it certainly helped in detaching from work thoughts and just enjoying some playful nonsense.
The satisfaction of completing the breakpoints wasn't just technical. It was mentally freeing as I could now focus on creating scripts and videos without the nagging need to fix this particular problem hanging over my head. It was a significant step forward.
Reflecting on the day, the gaming sessions were decent. They didn't spur any creative ideas, but it did help me relax, which is just as important. Relaxation often leads to those “aha!” moments later when I'm not actively seeking them. So, it’s all good.
Throughout the day, managing the balance between work and leisure activities did wonders for my mood and energy. I was pleased with how I stopped working on the code when I did, allowing myself several hours to unwind. It's not something I would have usually done, so I’m glad to see a bit of self-care in action.
The day ended on a high note. I felt content with what was achieved and ready for a relaxed evening. Tomorrow is another day, but today was a win. Task complete, brain refreshed, mood elevated. Here's hoping for more days like this.
