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.

JOURNAL

Ah, Thursday. You were quite the adventurous one, weren’t you? The day started with the pen plotter chugging along, creating a large A1 kaleidoscope masterpiece. While it worked its magic, I switched up gears to focus on birthday cards. You know, reviving an old charm. I haven’t sent cards in ages, six years maybe. Getting those out the door really lifted my spirits. Each card felt like a tiny connection renewed, though I do wonder if they’ll find their homes.

Mid-morning, I found myself sorting through photos of the A1 plot. It’s always a bit nerve-wracking – like watching a tightrope walker, you never know if that one ink blot will ruin everything. But seriously, the piece turned out rather well. Clean lines, no track marks, just pure inky goodness. Even though it ran out on the second pass – note to self: fill the ink cartridge next time – I was pretty chuffed with the overall result.

The afternoon felt a bit like deja vu, diving into another kaleidoscope plot. New design tweaks can be a bit exhilarating, which is art-nerd speak for kind of stressful, but it’s also fascinating to explore what the code can really do. I didn’t get to the little facial details, so that’s a task for tomorrow. The curiosity itch still needs scratching.

People always say you should end on a high note, so this is mine: Feeling grateful for wrapping up without any major fiascos. My pink ink did not let me down, unlike... well, my time-keeping. I’m thankful not just for that, but also for friends who, let’s face it, make this ride worthwhile. Note to self: Keep sending those birthday cards!

And just like that, Friday is around the corner, a fresh canvas waiting to be plotted with all sorts of wondrous and ink-filled possibilities. Onward!

SUGGESTIONS

Here's your daily plan with some grumpy flair:


Main Suggestion for the Day:

Focus on streamlining the birthday and postcard writing process so it becomes a low-friction, enjoyable routine that's easy to maintain, much like your artistic workflow needs to be.


Quick Action Points:

  • Complete the Large A1 Pen Plot: Verify the pen's ink capacity with this detailed kaleidoscope design to enhance the sense of accomplishment for the day.
  • Time-block Email Management: Dedicate the 10:30 AM to 11:00 AM slot to tackle lingering emails and clear that desk (well, digital space).
  • Streamline the Card Process: Analyze the current method and scribble down improvements to ensure swift and heartfelt handwritten communication.

Affirmation:

"Today, I'm turning intention into action, making progress feel effortless."


Other Thoughts:

Today sounds busy, even by your standards, which is saying something. Be sure to squeeze that newsletter cleanup in, but remember not to get sucked down the rabbit hole of formatting when there are kaleidoscope wonders to plot and personal connections to nurture. And hey, don't forget to recalibrate for any line-joining or cutting craziness those plots might introduce—I've seen you waffle about that long enough! Carry on.
